There’s something about being with you, laughing,
That makes me forget everything.
I forget everything I hate about myself,
Forget all the commotion around me.
I forget that I’m not good enough for you,
Oh, I forget that you don’t like me
Like I like you…
Like I like you…

This isn’t one of those week-long crushes,
Ain’t nothin’ to do with lust,
Oh this is for real,
Everything I feel,
Yeah this ain’t goin’ away.
Oh I know who you’re chasin’ after,
And I know I’m no her,

But there’s something about the way you hug me,
That makes me forget everything.
I forget everything I hate about myself,
Forget all the commotion around me.
I forget that I’m not good enough for you,
Oh, I forget that you don’t like me
Like I like you…
Like I like you…

Every conversation I have with you,
I wish it would never end.
And every love song I sing is all pretend,
Because you just wanna be a friend.
I guess I feel something you don’t feel,
Something you don’t see,

Because there’s something about the way you make fun of me,
That makes me forget everything.
I forget everything I hate about myself,
Forget all the commotion around me.
I forget that I’m not good enough for you,
Oh, I forget that you don’t like me
Like I like you…
Like I like you…
Oh like I like you.

Yeah there’s something about the way you laugh,
And the way that you hug me,
Something about the jokes you make,
That aren’t really supposed to offend me.
Yeah, just something about you that makes me forget,
Everything…

I wrote this for a guy whom I've liked for over a year-pretty much since I met him. He has been dating on-and-off with this girl whom I am good friends with. So this is for him.
