See the good

I am quite the fiesty thing
No I'm not the kind of girl you'd bring
To meet your mom and dad,
But honey I'm so glad
You choose to see in me the good and not the bad

There are times when I forget
My p's and q's and lady-like etiquette
But you don't get upset
No you don't get mad
Because you see in me the good and not the bad

People come and people go
About a dime a dozen, row by row
They're here today and gone tomorrow
And I don't want just anybody,
I want someone who's gonna love me
For the person that apparently I am

Mine is not a perfect past
I've made enough mistakes to last
For my whole life through
But all because of you,
I try to keep my chin up when I'm feeling sad
Because you see in me the good and not the bad
