She's a little shy on first impression But she's the one who caught my attention long ago She's a rare and a precious j**el And I know I'd be a fool to let her go I don't know why she looks up to me I'm as common as a man can be, but she don't care And I don't think that she understands That I could never be a man without her there I don't need a mountain of gold I found my treasure a long time ago
Nothing can take the place of this love that we share She's a West Texas wild flower Springing up from an April shower, watch her shine She's more than a face behind the name And she can drive me insane when she whispers mine And when my world starts closing in I know I can always depend on her there It's written in those big, brown eyes There's no way for her to disguise a love so rare
