She nailed it. Nailed everything. Even the title of the song.
Even the title of the fucking song.
It’s all about not liking me at first. About seeing into my heart and changing her mind about me. About falling in love and making love and wanting to be with me so much, her heart might burst. It’s also about being disappointed. And being terribly hurt and then having her heart broken…but still wanting nothing more than to have my eyes on her and to keep me. Her “keeper.”
Wow.
The Keeper
Music and Lyrics by Billie Hirsch
You were always beautiful to me
Even when I didn’t want you
Even when you made no sense to me
Even when you were wrong for me
A beautiful keeper…to me
To me…but so, so, so, so wrong
But then I saw
Something inside you
Something inside your beating heart
Something for keeping close
Your heart was beautiful, too
Beautiful, too…as beautiful as you
I want to live in your eyes
I want them on me…in me
I want them where you can see me
Keep you inside me
Keep your heart loving me
Loving me…until my heart breaks through
I’m watching you love me
I’m watching me hate you
I’m watching us battle for something
I should’ve told you you’re worth keeping
We’re something worth keeping
A love so worth keeping
