“We’re all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness—and call it love—true love.”

“You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
Love like you'll never be hurt,
Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth.”


I see the way you smile when your eyes lock with hers,

It's like the two of you were meant  to be,
I can almost feel your heart racing when she's near,
I've wanted you to feel that way about me,
But I know you'll never love me the way that I love you,
I know all too well that some dreams just don't come true.

And I know it doesn't matter,
'Cause you don't even know my name,
And you don't need my permission,
But I'll tell you anyway
I just want you to be happy,
Even if it's not with me,
I love you, yes, I love you
So I'll set you free.
