When you first meet somebody
you find out they like you
first of all friend of a friend of theirs says they really like you
and it kills you, floors you, sends you to the ground.
you gotta pick yourself up off the ground
then you get their phone number
and you call em up and you say yea
that was a great phone conversation
can i see you sometime and
they this they say 'i'd like that',
'i'd like that' makes you fall on the floor again
your hearts about to stop because of 'i'd like that',
nothing feels better than 'i'd like that' so now your blood pressures goin
your 6 feet off the ground can't sleep because of
'i'd like that' so then you hang out for awhile
and you call and you talk on the phone all the time
and then you drop the bomb what feels like that bomb
you say 'you know what ive been thinkin about ya alot' and shes goes (gasp)
you go what happened and she goes im sorry i just 'ive been thinking about you too
and BAM higher than the sky
but now 'i'd like that' done
now your up to 'im thinkin about ya' then however number of months makes you feel comfortable saying it
you say i gotta tell you something
they go what and you go 'im in love with you'
and nothing in the world sounds better than 'im in love with you'
and then maybe she starts crying and then maybe he goes
and then all of a sudden youre like im in love
but now what doesnt work 'id like that' and 'ive thinkin about ya' now we're at im in love with you
then maybe someday we can go up to i love you fast foward now you're like
i love you alot i love you more than anything in life
i love you doesnt work theres a threshold that keeps movin up fastfoward like 6 months
6 weeks whatever the case may be now your on like i wanna marry
i wanna impregnate you with my love i wanna just send my love to you
Damnit words dont work anymore and then you say this line you know
i just wish they put a new word in the dictionary bigger than love,
love just doesnt describe what i feel and so then now he or she starts askin
'do you love me' and then you start goin of course i love you well say it
then it becomes say it twice, say it three times and then you cross over
the really interesting point where all of a sudden it becomes i hate you
i hate you then you go omg she hates me and now its like
i hate you more than anything and then its like we're over
and then they go no we're not and then you go yes we are
now the words completely do not work at all your left with is nothing.
you're throwin punches underwater your done you know what the moral of that story is
if there is one, never ever ever ever ever underestimate the power of

"I'd Like That".
