Cheat post, well free song to put you guys on to.

I like these words…sing them to me.

Is your favorite color Blue?
Do you always tell the truth?
Do you believe in outer space?
And I’m learning you

Is your skin as tanned as mine?
Does your hair flow sideways?
Did someone took a portion of your heart?
And I’m learning you

And if you don’t mind
Can you tell me
All your hopes and fears
And Everything that you believe in
Would you make a difference in the world
I’d love for you to take me to a deeper conversation
Only you can make me
