My Sweet Elizabeth -------------------------------------------
She never slows down
She just crashes and crashes
and catches the rain in her mouth
Shes made of acid and ashes
and I have never fell in love faster
She is my sweet Elizabeth
She is my terrible girlfriend
She is the sunshine that burns my skin
She is my Ginsu wife
She is the one I will keep if I can
She doesn't keep up with time
She just stops all the clocks
and tries to do something right once in a while
She cries when I tell her
I will love her forever
but I tell her as much as I can
She is afraid of nothing
She just doesn't like the dark and
it chokes her all up
until she burns candles and prays
and falls asleep
but she's not weak
She is my sweet Elizabeth
She is my terrible girlfriend
She is the sunshine the burns my skin
She is my lady luck
She is my funny girl
She will never be lonely again
And thats grand
I love the way you can write about yourself and still make it sound amazing, with your seemingly random lines that really mean everything and will always be overlooked by those who don't really know you.
Like the fact that in loving someone, it matters not their personal strengths and weakness. It's what make them who they are. Sweet, yet terrible. LOL
However, I do think that the 'sweet & terrible' lines should be omitted from the 2nd last verse. Having it once early on and ending with it should be emphasis enough. :)
