[VERSE 1]   If you put it in pen   I'll be graded again   Because I'm bound   to make some mistakes   And it's gonna stink   if it's permanent ink   And I wish that it   could be erased      [CHORUS]   So, pencil me in   and I'll do what I can   to ensure I don't act   like a flake   Pencil me in   Darling please understand   it's a commitment   I'm not sure I should make      [VERSE 2]   If its written in lead   it won't mess with my head   If I need to   then I can back out   It may seem immature   but I'm really not sure   There's a chance   that this all could go south      [CHORUS]      [BRIDGE]   I'm unreliable   I'm stretched two pair   It's only you      [VERSE 3]   If you put it in stone   or in blood or in bone   I'll freak out   and I may just shut down   For I want you so bad   and to give this a stab   as it is, my word   means nothing now      [CHORUS]
