I know you’d proclaim my innocence,
Even though you knew I was guilty.

I know you’d fight for me,
Even though it was totally unnecessary.

I know you’d run a thousand miles for me,
Even though it would kill you.

I know you’d surprise me,
Even though you know I hate surprises.

I know you’d spend time with me,
Even though it was a waste of time.

I know you love me,
Even though I don’t love myself.

I know I love you.

I know I’m spoken for.
