| I mean she takes good care of me | A |
| She's the shy type | B |
| But whenever she's with me | A |
| She walks so confidently | A |
| - | |
| Isn't she caring | C |
| She doesn't just cook for me | A |
| She does my laundry | A |
| Not that it's my priority | A |
| Or a necessity | A |
| She's just naturally angelic | D |
| - | |
| Where ever I am | E |
| She's worried about how I'm fairing | D |
| I can only imagine | F |
| How well she'd make a good Mummy | A |
| I mean | G |
| She's got so much great qualities | H |
| - | |
| Isn't she lovely | A |
| She really wants to see me succeed | I |
| But then again | J |
| Her friends family | A |
| Are in a hurry | A |
| To get her married | I |
| But not necessarily to me | A |
| Where does that leave me | A |
| - | |
| Isn't she for me | A |
| Well the truth is quite scary | A |
| For time waits for no Man | K |
| So I'm in a hurry | A |
| Trying to crown the girl of my dreams | L |
| Make her my queen | G |
| But then again | J |
| Unconditional Love changes definition | F |
| Because when it comes to men | J |
| Love is often conditional | M |
| Sometimes this makes me sick | D |
| Of being human | F |
| Nevertheless | N |
| I'm trapped in a stereotype | B |
| That barricades me | A |
| From every compassion | F |
| Consideration | F |
| Or true affection | F |
| And I quote be a Man | K |
| - | |
| Well | O |
| I've been working tirelessly | A |
| In order to make ends meet | P |
| As well as making investments | Q |
| That were out of my league financially | A |
| But I'm afraid | R |
| That it'll take a little longer | S |
| For me to get ready | A |
| Even though I doubt | T |
| That they'll ever accept me | A |
| - | |
| Don't get me wrong | D |
| My heart is ready But also heavy | A |
| For the weight on my shoulders | U |
| Are extra pounds heavier | S |
| I know she wishes me well | O |
| I know she loves me genuinely | A |
| But sometimes I doubt that she truly | A |
| Wishes to be with me | A |
| I know this isn't the kind of utterance | V |
| She'd expect from me | A |
| If I pretend with everybody | A |
| At least I owe myself some honesty | A |
| - | |
| The truth is | W |
| Right now More than ever | S |
| I feel like joy is around the corner | S |
| And the morning is drawing closer | S |
| - | |
| I said to her I had a dream about us | X |
| But somehow in the dream | Y |
| I couldn't touch you | Z |
| And without hesitating | D |
| She says to me Maybe it's the reality | A |
| Her response really saddened me | A |
| But maybe she was right | A2 |
| Maybe this was a sign | B2 |
| Even though | C2 |
| I have no idea why I lied | D2 |
| For every time I saw her in a dream | Y |
| We were holding hands tight | A2 |
| I lied in search of a hidden truth | E2 |
| A surveillance for my insight | A2 |
| A sad discovery | A |
| Yet it is my plight | A2 |
| - | |
| I have no control over destiny | A |
| I notice envy in the eyes of our friends | F2 |
| Like Damn they're so lucky | A |
| Chuckles | G2 |
| If only they knew | Z |
| That we're just searching | D |
| For our happy ending | D |
| - | |
| One day she said to me | A |
| Temi Whatever happens don't forget me | A |
| Lol | A |
| Sounds like a catch phrase | H2 |
| From an epic movie | A |
| - | |
| Obviously | A |
| I'm not quoting her for mockery | A |
| But if there's something | D |
| I've learnt from all of this | I2 |
| It's not to tie my Happy ending | D |
| To the stereotypes people believe in | J2 |
| Because life must go on | K2 |
| If she's eventually convinced | L2 |
| By her friends and family | A |
| That her Happy ending isn't with me | A |
| Everyone struggles to conquer time | M2 |
| How ironic that we still fall victims | N2 |
| Story story Happy endings | O2 |
