I asked you if I was PRETTY, you said NO.<br /> I asked you if I was FAT, you said YES OF COURSE.<br /> I asked if you WANTED to be with me forever, you said NO.<br /> I asked you if you would CRY if I walked away, you said NO.<br /> I had heard too much and needed to leave and <br /> as I walked away&hellip;<br /> you grabbed my arm and told me to stay.<br /> You said&hellip;<br /> your not PRETTY, your BEAUTIFUL.<br /> The only thing FAT, or BIG, about you is your HEART.<br /> I don&rsquo;t WANT to be with you forever, I NEED to be with you forever.<br /> And, Baby I wouldn&rsquo;t CRY, if you walked away&hellip;<br /> I would DYE.
