I Like You (Farr's Song)

Edie Carey


If you didn't know I liked you 
You're pretty bright 
You'll probably figure it out now 
Or maybe you think I just like to 
Dress up in white and throw bags of our parents' cash around 

Did you know 
I did not like you much 
When we met 
What was it? 8 years ago? 
You and your friends you had this "we're too cool" attitude 
But I must admit 
I was quick to let that go 
When you showed up in my doorway 
Your wide brown eyes were simply fastened to your feet 
You had one hand behind you, the other hand was holding out 
My favorite sweet thing to eat 
You said 

"I like you, I like you, could you maybe like me, too?" 
I like you, I like you, could it really be that simple? 

Cause you know 
That I'm just like you 
I can get shy 
Hell, I can shut down 
But we're gathering up everything that scares us 
We'll divide it by two and you'll see 
There ain't nothing 
We can't shut down 

Cause I like you, I like you, could you maybe like me, too? 
I like you, I like you, could it really be that simple? 

Later on when it's quiet 
And everyone we love 
Has made their way home 
Yeah, I know we're gonna be tired 
But at least I know 
I'll finally be alone 
With that boy 
Who brought me ice cream 
Just 8 years ago 
You still make 
Everything so sweet 
And you paint your pretty pictures of everyone we know 
And nearly everyone you meet 
But they pale in comparison 
Yeah they do 
To your beauty and your grace 
Yeah, I know this is embarrassing 
I can almost feel the heat 
Rise to your face 

Cause you like me, you like me, you know you like me, too 
Yeah, you like me 
And oh baby I love you 
Could it really be that simple?
