Spencer Pratt - Building Love ... Lyrics

Yeah
Never thought I would end up writing songs about you
Never thought you would be the one on my mind
The one on my mind
Before I was just looking for someone to hang with
Someone to talk to
Maybe someone to become friends with
Now, I'm thinking
Nah

I'm really realizing how much I'm into her
Realizing how I always wanna be with her
Realizing how I can't get enough of her
Makes me remember
Takes me back to the last time I was into a girl
I remember thinking this certain girl was all that
Cause she was
Good looking and smart
I thought that was
Too good to be true
But really she was not even friendly
Not really a nice person
And then I met a new girl
A new girl who showed me new qualities
An damn personality
A dang great style
Started to ask myself
How is she so nice
Treating everyone like royalty
And how does she do it wit them nice outfits
And Yea
Seeing her around campus
Waving at me like I'm a good friend
'Fore I really even knew her
Made me feel recognized
Almost recognition I felt I didn't deserve

From a girl like her
A girl like her
I love a girl like her
But I'm
I'm not searching for love
I'm just trying to build some love
Just trying to earn some love
Not searching for love
Just trying to build some love
That love that comes from each other
The love that comes from each other
The one that's built of course
Yeah, uh

Yeah
The more I get to know her
The more I want to get to know her
The more I hang with her
The more I want to be with her
Afraid to reveal how I really feel about her
I don't want a reveal to change anything
I wanna be lifelong friends with her
Lifelong friends with her of course
Really don't know what I ultimately want tho
But I
I know I'm thinking
Thinking about her way too much

Yea
I remember liking another girl in high school in a similar way
But for a different reason
Reason was
Cause all my peers liked her
Did I really like that girl though
Did I really
Did I just want to prove myself
As if I was in some competition
Competing with other guys
What was that about
I don't really know
Now, I feel a real connection
A strong connection to a special girl
Someone special for so many reasons
Someone I can relate to
Someone so genuine
Love learning from her
Love her endearing personality
A personality I almost wanna emulate
I almost wanna emulate her
You know that feeling

That feeling when you just love someone
Yea
I'm not searching for love
I'm just trying to build some love
Trying to earn some love
I'm not searching for love
Just trying to build some love
Trying to earn some love
Trying to build some love
Trying to earn some love
I want some love
Love comes from each other
Love comes from the heart
Love comes from each other and the heart

Ya
Uh
I think
I think I wanna get this girl a husky calendar as a Christmas gift
One of them husky calendars, you know
I know how much she loves huskies and Christmas
I know that, I know that
I think she would like that calendar too
But is it
Is it too soon
Too soon to be getting her stuff
I think I know what kind of stuff she would like tho
I mean
I'm getting to know her like that
Really getting to know her
Happy that's happening

Yeah
And
My young heart
Believes we are destined
Destined for at least something
Just friends okay with me
Jus crazy how the old me used to look for love
Old me didn't even care about personalities
Old me didn't even try to get to know a girl
Old me didn't even know how to talk to a girl
What did I even think a girl was

I was tripping back then
Ya
A true fool I was
I think uhh
I just gotta believe we are destined
And I gotta keep on
Keep on building this love
I gotta
Keep on earning this love
This love that comes from each other
This love that comes from the heart
The love that comes from each other and the heart
Ya, it's a two way job man
Ya, I love it, I love it
I love how it's a two way job

Uh
Ya
Can't believe I used to be tripping back then
Searching for girls not because of personalities
Not b/c I really liked them
Was I just looking for appearance
Was I looking for street cred
Was I looking for some popularity
Oh man, what was I doing back then
Now, it comes from the heart
This love comes from the heart, man
I don't wanna search for love
I just wanna build this love

(True love is not found. True love is built)
Woo
