Lyrics
I like your dark eyes, and I like your hair shiny black.
I like my blonde curls, and I like my blue eyes shining back.
I like you. I like me.
I like that you and I are built so differently.
And I say, ?We?re Okay!?
Even though sometimes that?s hard to feel.
When people keep pointing out what?s different as wrong,
They?re wanting us to believe that we don?t belong.
But I like me even more when I?m with you.
I like your smile, I like the dimple that appears on your cheek.
I like my laughter.
When you make me laugh I find that I can?t speak.
Badah...
I like you. I like me.
I like that you and I are built so differently.
Oh, I like that we?re friends.
I hope that you and I are friends to the end.
