please think about me
but only the good things
like a mother

and the truth of it is
i wonder am i beautiful enough
for you
to kiss me true

september lily
i see your dark side
i see the reasons
for all of your crying
but they're hidden

september lily
do you wanna marry me?
it could be simple
elope in a taxi
for the weekend

and the truth of it is
i wonder am i beautiful enough
for you
to kiss me true

but the truth of it is
i wonder am i beautiful enough
for you
oh, to kiss me true
