today I made you a mix tape

and I decorated it with lots of stars.

it had all my favorite songs.

there was jawbreaker and armchair martian

built to spill and the descendents.

hell I even put one of ours on it.


falling for you was the easy thing to do.

if only somehow I could make you hang around.


today I made you a mix tape

to say exactly how I feel inside

and make you feel it to.

these are the songs that make me smile

and cry myself to sleep at night

when I'm lying without you.


I love you more than I ever loved anyone before.

hey silly girl I'm begging you.


all of these songs they remind me of you

I hope that you like this song.


did you ever listen to the words and melody

do you feel the pain inside

the way that it hurts me?

when your in your room at night

I hope you'll be singing along.

and make me a tape of your favorite songs.
