I like you better than that first cup of coffee. I like you better than licking the spoon. I like you better than finding a shady spot in the middle of June.
I like you better than real maple syrup. I like you better than a hip new tune. I like you better than dancing at night by the light of the silvery moon.
Better than laughing out loud. Better than singing before a sell-out crowd. Better than eating out of Grandma's pot. Better than finding where "X" marks the spot. I've connected the dots and discovered that you've got something that makes me like you a lot.
I like you better than walks in the country. I like you better than a small town parade. I like you better than skinny dipping when it's a hundred degrees in the shade.
Better than waves on the shore. Better than trying every hat in the store. Better than reading a really good book. Better than getting a second look. All these words that it took just to tell you I'm hooked - baby, you really got me shook.
I like you better than a smile from a stranger. I like you better than leaves in the fall. I like you better than getting flowers for absolutely no reason at all.
Better than breakfast in bed. Better than touching a fresh shaved head. Better than listening to the rain outside or my very first pony ride. What I don't want to hide and I'd like to confide is that you make me feel good inside.
