That Terri Clark Sure Knows What She's Talking About

So I'm back in Nebraska for spring break and I was listening to Terri Clark's "You're Easy on the Eyes" and thought to myself, "Wow. This is exactly how I feel about Jim Bob*." Here are the lyrics. I put the most poignant lines in bold for your convenience.

Should've known it was you
Knocking on my door
At a half past a heartache, quarter to four
Were you starting to worry I was finally getting over you?

I almost forgot you looked so fine
If you told me some lies it'd be like old times

Just getting to see you is almost worth the things you do

You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way the are
Better say goodbye before we go too far
Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart

I've got to admit you've got a smile
That really reeled me in for a while
But it ain't funny, honey what you put me through
So why don't you send me your photograph?
It would hurt a lot less than taking you back
Then I could still have my favorite part of you

You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way the are
Better say goodbye before we go too far
Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart

You're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart
You look so good but the way things look ain't the way the are
Better say goodbye before we go too far
Cause now I realize you're easy on the eyes
Hard on the heart

You already know this, but I heartily advocate the replacement of certain names with very ridiculous names to match very ridiculous behavior. Jim Bob is more than appropriate.
