Settle

Can you settle…

For something you’ll never have?

There’s something that I’ve dreamed about

An idea really

Of what he’ll really be like

Funny, Smart, Average like Me

Gives attention, offers help, overall helpful

A clever Boy Scout

Nothing will ever be

Good enough for Daddy’s Little Girl

So does this mean that I have to settle?

Do I have to settle

For a boy

Instead of a Man

Do I have to settle

For attention online

Instead of attention in person

Do I have to settle

For old stories

Instead of creating new ones

Do I have to settle

For hiding who we are

Instead of showing everyone who we are

Do I have to settle

For you

When there is so someone else

That I don’t have to settle for.
