Underneath

[Verse 1]

You know that East Coast girls always say what we mean

And shy Southern boys often don't say a thing

But opposites attract and you were drawn to me

And something 'bout you sparked my curiosity

They say that good guys usually don't come in first

Good girls fall for bad guys but with us it's reverse

Not your average love song between you and me

The way the story unfolds defies gravity

[Chorus]

Don't have to put on my makeup

I can leave out my contacts

Don't have to dress up for you

To think I'm beautiful

If I have a moody day

I don't have to act like I'm okay

I'm overdramatic

And you know how to handle it

Act natural, be emotional

Show my insecurities

And I love the way you love me

For who I am underneath

(Who I am underneath)

[Verse 2]

They say guys keep conversation short and sweet

And girls can talk for hours till they put you to sleep

But you're the one who checks up on me throughout the day

You stay on the phone even if there's nothing to say

Most guys that I know like to go out at night

But you leave that to me cause you're not that type

And we don't need to do anything special to be happy

We got what we need to make each other complete

[Chorus]

Don't have to put on my makeup

I can leave out my contacts

Don't have to dress up for you

To think I'm beautiful

If I have a moody day

I don't have to act like I'm okay

I'm overdramatic

And you know how to handle it

Act natural, be emotional

Show my insecurities

And I love the way you love me

For who I am underneath

(Who I am underneath)

Layer by layer you unravel me

Sometimes I am rough around the edges

But you handle me gently

And layer by layer I uncover you

And discover a side of you

That I never knew underneath

[Chorus]

Don't have to put on my makeup

I can leave out my contacts

Don't have to dress up for you

To think I'm beautiful

If I have a moody day

I don't have to act like I'm okay

I'm overdramatic

And you know how to handle it

Act natural, be emotional

Show my insecurities

And I love the way you love me

For who I am underneath

(Who I am underneath)

Who I am underneath

I love you for loving me

For who I am underneath
