  • She don't care about my car
    She don't care about my money
    And that's read good cause I don't got alot to spend
    But if I did it wouldn't mean nothin
    She likes me for me
    Not because I look like Tyson Beckford
    With the charm of Robert Redford
    Oozing out my ears
    But what she sees
    Are my faults and indecisions
    My insecure condition
    And the tears upon the pillow that I shed
    She don't care about my big screen
    Or my collection of DVDs
    Things like that just never mattered much to her
    Plus she don't watch too much TV
    And she don't care that I can fly her
    To places she ain't never been
    But if she really wants to go
    I think deep down she knows that
    All she has to say is when
    She likes me for me
    Not because I hang with Leonardo
    Or that guy who played in "Fargo"
    I think his name is Steve
    She's the one for me
    And I just can't live without her
    My arms belong around her
    And I'm so glad I found her once again
    And I'm so glad I found her once again
    And I'm so glad I found her once again
    Gazing at the ceiling as we entertain our feelings in the dark
    The things that we're afraid of
    are gonna show us what we're made of in the end
    She likes me for me
    Not because I sing like Pavorotti
    Or because I'm such a hottie
    I like her for her
    Not because she's fat like Cindy Crawford
    She has got so much to offer
    Why does she waste all her time with me
    There must be something there that I don't see
    She likes me for me
    Not because I'm tough like Dirty Harry
    Maker her laugh just like Jim Carrey
    Unlike the Cable Guy
    But what she sees Is that I can't live without her
    And I'm so glad I found her once again
    Found her once again Once again
    Yeah I'm so glad I found her once again Writer/s: Eliot Walker Sloan, Jeffrey Curtis Pence, Matthew Joseph Senatore
