Achtung und Respekt

I remember when I asked
If I was the only one
Who wrote you beautiful letters
With all my heart

You laughed and said, “no.”
Then I started to write you songs
But you already ruined
Jack Johnson for me
My thirteen songs can’t compete

I always thought that I was wrong
When I said you were the one
Who had to wait for me
Because I always run away
But The Neighbourhood doesn’t
Sound the same

But the thing is, you are so mature
Then you are so naïve
I don’t know what’s wrong with us
Or who should’ve grown first

But damn, I wish I was the only one

You told me love was patient
Then you lost your faith in time
Said you’d never need a reason
But I watched your seasons change

I tried to read between the lines
But your words were never clear
Maybe you just loved the idea of me
More than who I‘m meant to be 

ruined

What you see
M. Shelton

[Verse 1]
I can see you got your sights on her
Thinking you can pick her up with your words
I’ll tell you Buddy you ain’t got a shot
She’s already found her honey pot

[Pre- CHORUS]
There’s so much more than what you see

[CHORUS]
You see, I met her way back when we were still in school
I had long hair, and she knew that I was cool
I try to be everything she deserves
I keep her smiling through life’s little curves
Yeah, me and her have lots of history 
More than what you see

[Verse 2]
The first time in her grandma’s house
She wanted a kiss, and I couldn’t turn her down
She ain’t the type you can ever tell “no”
If her daddy were here, even he’d say so

[CHORUS 2]
You see, I met her way back when we were still in school
She knew we’d be together way before we said “I do”
I try to be everything she deserves
I keep her smiling through life’s little curves
Yeah, me and her have lots of history 
More than what you see

[Bridge]
Now you know, she won’t give you a chance
Buddy sit back down, this one here’s my dance!

[CHORUS 3]
You see, I met her way back when we were still in school
I had long hair and I thought I was cool
So, I try to be everything she deserves
She’s still smiling, that confirms
me and her have lots of history 
That girl and me are making history
More than what you see
More than what you see
