He's Sure The Boy I Love
Unexpected Love: Embracing Imperfection in 'He's Sure The Boy I Love'
Lyrics
I always dreamed the boy I loved would come along
I always anticipated the ideal boy I loved would appear
And he'd be tall and handsome rich and strong
Envisioned him as tall, handsome, affluent, and robust
But now that boy I love has come to me
The boy I adore has finally arrived in my life
But he sure ain't the way I thought he'd be
However, he's not as I had imagined him to be
(He's sure the boy I love)
(He's indeed the boy I love)
He doesn't look like a movie star
He doesn't resemble a movie star in appearance
He doesn't drive a Cadillac car
He doesn't own a luxurious Cadillac car
He sure ain't the boy I've been dreamin' of
He's far from the boy I fantasized about
But he's sure the boy I love
Yet, unquestionably, he's the boy I deeply love
Let me tell ya now
I want to emphasize
He'll never be a big business man
He won't pursue a high-profile career
He always buys on the installment plan
He tends to make purchases through installment payments
He sure ain't the boy I've been dreamin' of
He's not the ideal boy I had in my dreams
But he's sure the boy I love
Yet, undeniably, he's the boy I genuinely love
When he holds me tight
When he embraces me tightly
Everything's right
Everything feels perfect
Crazy as it seems
Despite how odd it might seem
I'm his whatever he is
I belong to him, no matter his status
And I forget all of my dreams
I disregard all my aspirations and desires
(Everybody knows)
(Everyone acknowledges)
He doesn't hang diamonds round my neck
He doesn't adorn me with expensive diamonds
And all he's got's an unemployment check
All he possesses is an unemployment benefit
He sure ain't the boy I've been dreamin' of
He's not the boy I envisioned in my dreams
But he's sure the boy I love
Yet, unequivocally, he's the boy I cherish deeply
When he holds me tight
When he holds me tightly
Everything's right
Everything feels perfect
Crazy as it seems
Despite how odd it might seem
I'm his whatever he is
I belong to him, no matter his status
And I forget all of my dreams
I disregard all my aspirations and desires
Everybody knows
Everyone acknowledges
He doesn't hang diamonds round my neck
He doesn't adorn me with expensive diamonds
And all he's got's an unemployment check
All he possesses is an unemployment benefit
He sure ain't the boy I've been dreamin' of
He's not the boy I envisioned in my dreams
But he's sure the boy I love
Yet, unequivocally, he's the boy I deeply love
(He's sure the boy I love) oh, oh, oh
(He's indeed the boy I love) oh, oh, oh
(He's sure the boy I love) oh, oh, oh
-(He's sure the boy I love) oh, oh, oh
-(He's sure the boy I love) oh, oh, oh
-(He's sure the boy I love) oh, oh, oh
-(He's sure the boy I love) oh, oh, oh
