Betty

Seven long years, in another life
We were students going through it
Learning how to hide
I kinda felt weak
About myself back then
It's tough in Texas
When you're hopeless, helpless, different

You say, let's start over
In our favorite clothing
I knew, a kind of knowin'
For good

Betty, nice to meet you
Nice to meet you, Betty
I'm so glad you found me
Now we're older, now we're ready
Betty, nice to meet you
Nice to meet you
Let's be who we were already

I'm a tomboy and you're a retro girl
Walking around our northern town
Making sense of the world
I said, sorry if I was ever a cringe
Well, you just laughed
It's in the past
Don't worry about it

You say, let's start over
In our favorite clothing
I knew, a kind of knowin'
For good

Betty, nice to meet you
Nice to meet you, Betty
I'm so glad you found me
Now we're older, now we're ready
Betty, nice to meet you
Nice to meet you
Let's be who we were already

Betty's like a beacon
Betty's like a breath I let escape (nice to meet you)
Betty's the whole reason
Betty's got to be my favorite name (nice to meet you)
Betty all the time
Betty all the time
Look me in the eye
Look me in the eye
Teach me how to try
Teach me how to try
Can you show me what it's like?

Betty, nice to meet you
Nice to meet you, Betty
I'm so glad you found me
Now we're older, now we're ready
Betty, nice to meet you
Nice to meet you
Let's be who we were already
Let's be who we were already
