When I realized I could write lyrics and let someone that I knew listen to them, but not know that the song was about them - say it was a girl. I could write this song about how I feel about this girl, I could play it to them. I just loved it, because all of the words would speak to them. I could see them slowly falling in love with me.

This quote is about the power of songwriting. It explains that by writing a song about somebody, whether it be a girl or anyone else, that person may become increasingly interested in the writer as they may feel a connection to the song. The writer is able to express feelings to someone that they might not otherwise be able to express and they can see them fall in love with them because of the words in the song. The quote suggests that songwriting is a powerful tool in connecting with others.
