My mom got remarried
And with him she was carried
I decided to live with my dad
And my life seemed rather sad
Then I got to know you
I never knew someone so perfect could be true
I didn't see you all next week
But it was you I wanted to seek
You came back friendly and kind
And you questioned the sanity of my mind
"I have a theory," I'd said
And you wanted to get inside my head
You said it was a pathetic try
You're not the good but the bad guy
A van was skidding on icy land
But you came and pushed it away with your hand
I asked how you saved me from the van
How fast could you must have ran
You told me an adrenaline rush
But I was going to keep it hush
I was sitting by the campfire
Listening to a story about a vampire
Your name had been mentioned
And I paid more attention
Jacob told me a story about the cold ones
And that your clan is the same one
We went to Port Angeles
And I asked where the bookstore was
I was then caught in a group of men
For about five minutes, maybe ten
You saved me yet again
And I refused to think what could've been
Then you took me to dine
Even though I said I was fine
You showed me your talent
But with me nothing happened
You were tired of staying away
So instead I asked you to stay
To the woods I went
You followed me by my scent
I asked how old you were
And that caused quite a stir
You said you were seventeen
I asked how long that's been
You answered, "A while"
And you did it with your graceful style
"I know what you are," I said barely a sound
And you told me to say it, say it out loud
You took me up the mountain
Where it was less like a fountain
You sparkled in the sun
Not one diamond, but a ton
He drove me to school
And the feel of the seat was cool
He told me about his family
Firstly about Rosalie
She was vain and tenacious
Esme was polite and gracious
Carlisle was intelligent
And strong was Emmett
Jasper could control emotion
And Alice had futuristic vision
He only lived on tofu
"Imagine tasting you!"
They drank the blood of animals
Because they didn't want to be cannibals
White furniture and wood floor
Carlisle and Esme stood at the door
Rosalie and Emmett were nowhere in sight
And Jasper gave me such a fright
He took me to his room
And flung me out the window, zoom!
These things were impossible
My surprise was almost laughable
Charlie greeted him with as much grace he could muster
While Edward's response sparkled with luster
He took me to play baseball
He had some human in him after all
Afterwards the nomads arrived
James knew Edward was about to be deprived
"You brought a snack"
"No way, take it back"
Edward drove me away
To where? I couldn't say
I couldn't leave my father behind
So a plan we had to find
We had James on our trail
So I had to think of a tale
"Charlie would never let me live this down"
I'd said as we drove out of town
I got a call from James a few hours later
He had my mom and was going to kill her
I went to the ballet studio down the road
A few blocks away from my humble abode
Out of the window you came
And I knew it was nearing the end of the game
My arm James had bit
And a fire started from it
I woke up at the hospital, usually
And I wanted to see you, truly
From Forks I had to stay away
But I convinced you enough to let me stay
I couldn't believe you took me to prom
One thing I always hid from
Jacob was there
And told me beware
"The Quileutes are watching"
His father's concern was so touching
"I want to be like you"
I told Edward, "It's true"
