Story behind the song
Baseball says you're out after three strikes. Life says you're not when you have someone who loves you just as you are.
Lyrics
sometimes in the morning, I can act a fool happens without warning, I start runnin' around and freakin' out and breakin' all the rules and I don't even listen to you when you're trying to talk some sense into this little brain of mine but I'm so glad you love me even when I don't get it right once, I made a promise to you only kept it for an hour said that I'd be honest but I had to tell a little white lie just to save my pride, 'cause my whole plan died and went crashing to the ground and I have often wondered about me and how you make it clear to me that I don't have to fuss and fight I'm so glad you love me even when I don't get it right I could never see your smile fall down like the rain, no when I'm goofin' all the while you're not writing down my name, no this ain't no sticks and stones once, I stuck my foot in my mouth and it tasted just like a foot would taste when your words come thoughtlessly looks like another case of "mouth in gear before my brain appeared" sounds like a little front page news for the Goofball Times, so I had to go to my bed, cover my head got to think about the foolish things I said 'cause the word on the street was that the wound went deep and the pain I caused wouldn't give 'em no sleep and a friend of a friend had a brother who knew the mother of the sister that I said things to who had a lump in her throat 'cause her heart got broke by a man with a plan but his brain in his hand and before we were through the whole world knew and my bluff got called, and the bill came due so I swallowed my pride and I looked inside and I raised my voice and I made the choice that I'd never again say such things to a friend and I sure would understand if they did not ever want to be my friend again I'm so glad you love me I'm so glad you love me I'm so glad you love me even when I don't get it right
