The One I Think of Sincerely

You picked me up that night
You said you need me to help you
With this one subject
You had a hard time understanding

I told you my stories
You listened and responded
And you remembered every word I said
You smiled and laughed at what I said

And you're still the one
I think of sincerely
Even up till now
Even late till midnight
Even when you're not around
You're the one I think of sincerely

You drove me back home
And took me to my front door
You went without looking back
Though I had wished you would have done that

I wondered how you're going home
Was it safe to drive in the dark?
Had you eaten and
Would you get enough sleep?

And you're still the one
I think of sincerely
Even up till now
Even late till midnight
Even when you're not around
You're the one I think of sincerely

I worry about you
How you live, how you eat
Is it nice? Is it healthy?
Aren't you taking too many activities?
Aren't you giving too much help?

In the midst of all that
I saw your flirting tendency
You say 'Hi' to every pretty girl
And never,
Never have you laid your eyes on me

But you're still the one
I think of sincerely
Even up till now
Even late till midnight
Even when you're not around
You're the one I think of sincerely

And you're still the one
I think of sincerely
Even if I know
Even if this isn't right
Even when you're not around
You're the one I think of sincerely
