about

A cherished relationship that begins with a head injury.

lyrics

Something Awful
© 2011 The Squirrel Hillbillies

The first time I saw you I fell off my bike
And I smiled as my head hit the ground
You laughed and you asked was I feeling alright
I said you turned my world upside down

You kneeled at my side and I reached for your hand
You frowned but you didn't resist
I lifted my head and got ready to stand
Then you knocked me back down with a kiss

I love you something awful
And that's the awful truth
My poor heart will break if your love starts to fade
Like the strip from that old photo booth

The way that you run with the dogs by the lake
The notes that you leave by the door
You can say all you want about timing and fate
But I know what I'm hoping for

The look in your eyes when you're looking at me
Makes me stumble and step on your toes
I will dance with chickens and talk to the trees
If it means that you'll never let go

I love you something awful
And that's the awful truth
My poor heart will break if your love starts to fade
Like the strip from that old photo booth
