ill be there

By josh napperPublished about a year ago 3 min read

If you need me, I'll show up. If you need a hand, then I'll offer you both of mine. If you need a hug then I'll hold you till the tears stop falling. if you need a smile i would gladly go find a mirror for you to look at. If you need a light then I'll bring you the sun.

look at my words girl if you wanna know if i'm for real. I've made mistakes just asking kas, that one still hurts. i've been an asswhole just cuz kels, tho that's one i disagree at times. I've done insane things for the ones that have my heart. Just asking that family I left in missouri. go ask those leaders of the pack about the type of guy I am. go ask the workers at speedway to see how i treat 3rd shift workers. go ask that crossing guard that i used to talk to on my way to work how i treated strangers. heck go find my former co-workers to see how i act while getting that bread. We have mutual friends on Facebook, so just post a status to see what type of guy that guy named Josh Napper is.

If you need me, I'll show up. If you need a hand, then I'll offer you both of mine. If you need a hug then I'll hold you till the tears stop falling. if you need a smile i would gladly go find a mirror for you to look at. If you need a light then I'll bring you the sun.

Aint gonna have you looking stupid out there in this world cuz that's only what little bitches and wanna be men do. ain't saying i'm a king cuz the highest i've been is a prince. i can't take you to the red carpets but if I get money after bills I'll go buy some red carpet. can't take you to those fancy restaurants but how bout a small dinner at the table. i ain't gonna leave you in tears of sadness nor embarrassment, however I'll do my best to make you cry tears of joy and make you blush dark red sometimes.

you're probably texting your girlfriends talking about that mr.hollywood guy that has you falling head over heels cuz he has that o yea look who can sing you an award winning love song. this ain't gonna win any awards for songwriting and this tv show we live in isn't gonna win any awards either.; however when you're on my mind i win every award. no way i compare with big time singers, i'm just a small town boy that can make you feel like you're the goddess of the small town.

If you need me, I'll show up. If you need a hand, then I'll offer you both of mine. If you need a hug then I'll hold you till the tears stop falling. if you need a smile i would gladly go find a mirror for you to look at. If you need a light then I'll bring you the sun.

this ain't one of those movies where that normal boy wins the beautiful girl of his dreams cuz in my way of life it doesn't turn out that way. I could try but I mean what's the point of trying to pull off the impossible. cuz girl i'm thinking i'm the good kind of perfectly insane. so i'll keep writing these little confessions till your relationship status changes and our friends see how bad it affects me. trust me tho i'll play it off somewhat.
