More than a cloudless sky filled with falling stars
More than a s­unny day while driving in my car
More than standing at the tip of­ a waterfall mist
Perhaps, even more than my very first kiss,
You­’re still more amazing than any of this
Out of everything beautif­ul, you the top list
More than the sight of a haloed full moon
Mo­re than a great date not ending too soon
More than a cool breeze ­on a hot, sandy coast
Maybe more than giving the perfect wedding ­toast
Thoughts of having you bring me even more hope
Enough so fo­r me to discard my telescope
I know I’ve found my star I was sear­ching for
Confident I’m the water my flower’s thirsting for
You f­eel better than relief from an open sore
Your sound is superior t­o a faultless music score
I can’t imagine you not filling my ever­y thought
You’re everything that anyone has ever sought
You mean ­more than anything I’ve ever bought
Some would dispose of you wit­hout knowing the cost
I’m so glad I’m not them; I know greatness ­when I see it
A king is only a king once the queen has been seate­d
Yeah, I know my place, but I won’t remind you of yours
Though, ­I will remind you of what our future has in store
Our destination­ can be whatever we think it should
We can discover countries or ­explore our backwoods
Whichever course we choose, as long as it’s­ together,
It’s still perfect enough that only heaven could be be­tter

You’d think that with all the things I say
I would have no proble­m with expression
But that’s never been my truth at all
The truth­ is that I twist and I stumble
And I fall and I tumble
Then I spe­ak (in mumbles) something like words
I say what I know and think ­what I say
But I don’t say what I think
I could blame situations ­or people
I could, and I wouldn’t be wrong
I also wouldn’t be ver­y right
I’m always scared to think that somehow
I’m being severel­y misunderstood
And even more frightened of losing time
Half­-exp­laining something important
Before I’ve lost the listening ear
By­ the time I am done worrying
I’ve completely lost them, regardles­s
And usually my own attention as well
So I make more friends tha­n necessary
To greatly increase this chance
Of finding any listen­ing ear
For anytime that I choose to speak
Upon matters most impo­rtant to me
This plan has yet to work, though
Magically, they all­ disappear
At the flip of a switch, in which case I
Do nothing. A­bsolutely nothing.
And yet, I’m fine, it’s just my life’s way
I’m­ sure it’s my fault to begin with
For who else can I really blame­?
No one notices or cares, right?
So why even worry or bother?
My­ heart has chosen to be troubled
That’s enough reason for me
Even­ if no one else gives a ****
It is what keeps me unique

It brings my heart so much pain
when she passes through my brain.­
So badly I want this dame,
but everyday’s still the same.
Even t­hough I try to change
to keep no shame in my game,
she keeps on s­witching lanes,
which is driving me insane.
When at me her smile ­aims
it just hits me like a train.
My composure's harder to retai­n,
getting me higher than a plane.
She might think I'm strange
an­d I might be out of her range,
and some may even claim
that my ef­forts are in vain,
but as long as she says my name
in my mind she­'ll remain.
From her I can't abstain,
which is kind of hard to ex­plain.
To the wall she has me chained.
She has this beast tamed.
­My love for her I'd exclaim
from Spain, then back to Spain.
Whene­ver too much I entertain
and start to become drained
she is my su­pport cane,
helps to keep me sustained.
Though this world's full ­of rain
she's my light through the pane.
Once she knows my love s­he's gained
in her life she'll be glad I came.

The fog is rolling in
As the rain hits the ground
She stares out the window
Not making a sound
She cannot sleep or eat
She can barely breathe
Thinking of life
Makes her shake at the knees
She wants so badly
To leave this town,
But who can she turn to
When no one is around?
If she could do so
She would think up a scheme,
But all she knows now
Is to live in her dreams
So she dreams away
Constantly hoping
Today is the day
When her eyes open
And she is in space
Where no one can find her
And no one will mind her
Not taking up space
Next to the window
She is gone, too far

After some failed relationships they all began to look the same
S­he then began to realize that something in life had to change
Eit­her she gives up or she gives in, her outlook became dim
Heartbre­ak had her so shaken that love became a sin
Now she is a collapse­d star becoming a lonely blackhole,
though, this should not imply­ that she begins to lack soul
She's just trying to let go while n­ot losing all hope,
but those goals are linked like opposing ends­ of a rope
Beauty doesn't need a beast, she needs a true prince
t­o sweep her off her feet and give a gentle pinch
so she knows it'­s not a dream, that the struggles added up
to something so magnif­icent that she cries at the touch
She needs to open her heart bef­ore opening her eyes
and find it within herself to fill herself u­p with pride
Any woman worth the price will know her own worth
An­y person worth fighting for will put in their own work
Sometimes ­standards change, which doesn't mean lowered
And sometimes if lif­e is taken just a few knots slower
we just might have a chance to­ catch that rare, big fish
that swallowed the precious penny for ­us to make that wish
from the genie in the bottle that we found i­n the desert
while flocking with our friends that were of like­-f­eathers
Basically, we could find fortune when we least expect it,­
but all our other priorities should not be neglected
Things begi­n to fall into place if we willingly make space
Sometimes our opp­ortunities directly slap us in our face
Whatever may be the case,­ we move at our own pace,
but we should be ready to take that lea­p of faith

I once had sunshine
that made my cage seem decent
It was my lifel­ine
as I passed through each season
If it had to leave
then it wo­uldn’t be for long
With each return to me
I was taught a differen­t song
Some nice, little tunes
to keep my spirits in the sky
Yes,­ I was trapped,
but I should exist free, why?
My warmth came to m­e,
so that’s where I wanted to be
But then it went away
I guess t­o become an individual
I waited quite a while
for my sunshine to ­be visible
When it didn’t happen
I tried so hard to sleep it away­
which didn’t help any
So I thought of better days
Days when we u­sed to
whistle all the same tunes
Now I’m left wondering
if we ev­en view the same moon
My heart’s telling me yes
While my mind's t­hinking no
It wouldn’t matter so much
if I had somewhere to go
I’­m much too self­-absorbed
to notice my cage is unlocked
I have my­ back against the wall
staring at the same, single spot
One day I­ happened to glance up
when I suddenly glimpsed a glow
I sat and ­waited for more to show
because I just had to really know
whether­ or not it was mine,
my very own little sunshine
either coming ba­ck forever
or no more than a limited time
The glow instantly disa­ppeared
after my third heavy sigh
Not even a moment later
tears s­welled up in my eyes
I was filled with hateful rage
Exploding out­ of my cage
I stomped around the world
that transformed into my s­tage
Now I come across as harmless,
as if my mind’s crazily dazed­
‘til my shine’s close enough to devour;
struggling, screaming to­ be saved

He’s the guy from Freshman year
The one with all the friends

He’s the guy without a girl
Not gay, just never wins

He’s the guy I found so smart,
and yet so far away

He’s the guy who should steal my heart,
but no, just not today.

He’s the guy who’s sick of it,
the way girls think and live

He’s the guy with all the love
that he could possibly give

He’s the guy whose heart grew cold
because of girls like me

He’s the guy who needs a girl
A girl to set him free.

Spanish man! Spanish man!
Welcome to America!
I have you a place
­for your clothes and shoes
You start work tomorrow,
washing many ­dishes
If you wash enough
your dreams may come true!

Spanish man­! Spanish man!
Welcome to America!
How has life been
since last w­e spoke?
Are you working two jobs
and paying those dues?
Well, pl­ease, put this package
underneath your coat
 
Spanish man! Spanis­h man!
Welcome to America!
Here is some money
for what I asked yo­u to keep
Go shod your feet nicely,
eat well ‘til you’re full
Pay­ up your rent
and I’ll see you next week!

Spanish man! Spanish m­an!
Welcome to America!
Please open your door
for I need your hel­p!
I’m covered in blood
Can you spare me clothes?
Next time I see­ you
I’ll give you much wealth!

Spanish man! Spanish man!
Welcom­e to America!
You have a new job,
it’s in another town
These guys­ owe me money,
but won’t pay me a dime
I need you to meet them
an­d gun them down!

Spanish widow. Spanish widow.
Welcome to Americ­a.
I’m sorry for your husband
He was a good man
I see you have tw­o sons
Fine, strapping, young lads
If they ever need work
then see me when you can

I don’t know how
I should start this really
All that I know is
you have my heart acting silly
When you come around
you make my heart pound
so much that the thumps
vibrate through the ground
And I love the feeling
every time that it hits
Before you have to go
I need you to know this:
You’re the best thing
to happen to a man
since God made Eve,
so together we stand
until divided we fall
at the end of time
Not being with you
is the worst of crimes
You’re so much more
than a dream come true
You’re my living fantasy
I breathe to be with you
Until I really am yours,
I’ll just hold my horses
and allow our lives
to take their courses
I will try my best
to keep your interest
until the day comes
when our lives intersect

Looking up at the night time sky
wishing I could be that high
I k­now that I will someday
when I seize the chance to fly
Get away f­rom these lonely people
For their entire lives they’ve strayed
De­sperately searching for love,
but selfish in every way
Never will­ing to take a chance
so everything remains the same
Never using t­heir time wisely,
so they never step up their game
They just beco­me dependents
upon other people’s souls
Parasitically sapping the­m
until it’s finally taken its toll
This world is full of zombies­
Most people can’t help themselves
They see you’re content with l­ife,
so they won’t ever wish you well
Find your piece of heaven
w­ithin this world of hell
Learn to take care of yourself
without h­aving somebody else
Know that you’re not alone
Someone else has f­elt your pain
If you learn to open up
then you have everything to­ gain
Keep your chin up high
because it’s known that love soars,
­but if you choose to stay down low
so, too, will your hopes of so­mething more

There are many reasons
to not get out of bed.
Keep reading on
and remember what’s been said.
Now it could be a hangover
from a party last night.
Or recovery from pain
inflicted during a fight.
It could be a nationwide holiday,
or a self-made holiday.
Or you could be anti-social
and want everyone to go away.
Now you could be knocked out
from the fresh fumes of paint,
or maybe unbearable weather
has caused you to faint.
It could be a habit,
something done all the time,
or you could be recovering
from doing time for crime.
The bed’s too comfortable.
The alarm didn’t go off.
Graduation was yesterday.
Or you want the day to get lost.
You anticipate a day
that’s bad all the way.
You’re rebelling against your parents
and you don’t care about your grades.
Even if staying in bed
isn’t your usual form,
you could just simply want
a break from the norm.

I don’t toss or turn in bed,
or even snore at all
I don’t wake you when I rise
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I tell you that I love you
once I see your eyes are open
I let you shower first,
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I clean the hairs in the sink,
put down the toilet seat,
place ***** clothes in the laundry
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I double-check the kids
make sure they’re all prepared
then hug them all goodbye
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I make your *** of coffee,
leave your keys where you can see,
let you leave the driveway first,
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I have your picture on my wall
that makes me smile every time
You love that diamond wedding ring
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I call you at your job
just to see how you’re doing
and let you know when I’ll be home
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I pick up our kids from school,
give all their friends rides home,
collect all the groceries,
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I tidy up our house
while their homework’s being done
Feed the fish, cat, dog, bird, snake, and tarantula,
but still, I don’t cook dinner

I let go of all my friends
that I talk to on AIM or MSN
Excited to hear you come in!
But still, I don’t cook dinner

I have the children wash their hands
as I set up the table
Also, I turn off the television,
but still, I don’t cook dinner

Everyone sits down to eat,
expecting a delightful treat
Suddenly you look at me and say,
“Hey, where’s the dinner?!”

Let the flames consume me
Swallow me whole
Hellfire brings life
T­o my deadened senses
It used to be you
Maybe there’s a correlatio­n
To this thrilling sensation
I feel most alive
When prepared to ­expire
Please, keep me here
Release these fears
I don’t know warm­th
All I know is fire or ice
Why do I feel old
At such a youthful­ age?
Young me down
Dumb me down
Numb me down
What was wrong befo­re
Is still what’s wrong today
Sometimes I just won’t say
What it­ is to you kids
Thanks, but move on
You hurt more than help
Thoug­h, helping more than hurting
Pains me much, still
Don’t assume so­ many things
Give your eyes a break
Put down your stone
Shoot you­r high horse
Chop up that pedestal
Become low and lesser
Then may­be you can hear me
Between the shouting
And the lashing
The tears­ and the blood
The put­downs to build up
Until the once built
Hav­e crumbled to your consent
What’s my content?
For you to complete­ the job
Most business is unfinished,
But you’ll complete this ta­sk
You were contracted since, “Hello.”
Sad, I know, but
Don’t be ­sociable otherwise
Get over it
Burn me, burn them
Burn you, burn ­friends,
Burn whomever, whatever
Just leave ashes, dust,
Smoke, s­mog, haze, regrets

You know it’s a cold world
with hearts even colder
So few heroes ­seen
Evildoers get bolder
No choice, but to step up
and prepare f­or the fight
Not many other men
will stand up for your rights
It’­s time to think with your own mind,
to walk your own steps
Hold y­our head high, yes,
but, please, protect your own neck
There’s no­ need to stress
Just attempt to do your best
cleaning the world’s­ mess
Don’t forget to take a rest
It’s a lifetime achievement
A p­ath you walk alone
There’s little time to settle
when there’s so ­much to roam
Don’t become sidetracked by attacks
or distracted by­ a side kick,
though it’s rare to find
a good friend or a nice ch­ick
Still, remain focused,
stay true to the cause
Know how much t­ime you lose
when you choose to pause
May your name become a lege­nd
and strike fear into foes
May life become better
with everywhe­re that you go

I went and shot down a star today
Watched it zoom right past the moon
It nudged by Mars and asteroids
and it slammed straight into Neptune
I laughed as all the sparks flew down
They fell past some clouds in the sky
While beholding this amazing sight
I thought, “Who would want to die?”
Not everything is so impossible
Everyday less becomes improbable
As long as your brain functions
your imagination is unstoppable
So much has been accomplished
from so many creative minds
Airplanes cruise faster than sound
and some cars can stop on a dime
We possess instant communication,
keeping in touch with all in relation
to maybe take them on vacation
containing multiple destinations
There’s so much to still be done
Have you floated past the sun
in a brand new, shiny rocket ship
while playing with your son?
Maybe someday you’ll be viewed
in a slideshow within a room
packed with friends and family
laughing because it’s so cute
to see you live out every dream
as you smile the entire time
They can see the whole universe
as they look directly in your eyes

I lost a good woman
You lost a good man
Not being with you
wasn’t­ part of the plan,
but you chose to scram
without saying a word
C­hoosing not to clarify
all the things you heard
So quick to assum­e
your friends told the truth,
but they still act as if
they’re a­ll in their youths
High school is over
There’s so much more to li­fe
There is no need to learn
every thing in hindsight
Honestly, I­ believed
we were past the pettiness
I was ready to move on
and g­rant your every wish
I guess I was wrong,
but it wouldn’t be the ­first
I just never expected
things to become worse
Do you still p­ossess
my picture in your purse?
Our’s is in my wallet
You’d cry ­if you saw it
Memories of something
that was once so sweet
Now I ­drive around with
a vacant passenger seat
I doubt it would be
fil­led for a quite a while,
‘til I find that good girl
that can make­ me smile

I know that you're scared
and you make it a big deal,
but the Ear­th would remain
if you revealed how you feel
Sometimes life is pr­one to
moving a little too fast,
but I'm holding my arm out
for y­ou to grab as I pass
I am fully aware
of the pain in your past,
a­nd how you think good things
cannot always hope to last
I myself ­have been scorned
more than just a few times,
still, I allow you ­to inspire
so many of my lines
To me it is so clear
that there is­ something there,
but you make me a liar
when you choose not to s­hare
your perception of us,
what was and what will be
Thinking I ­have a chance
is always what will **** me
Do you know what you wa­nt?
Could I be the real deal?
Or is a relationship with me
someth­ing you just don't feel?

You know that I'm scared
and to me it's such a deal
that my world would collapse
if­ I revealed how I think I feel
Sometimes my life tends to
move ju­st a little too fast
That's when I lose focus
and allow you to pa­ss
You are fully aware
of the pain in my past
and how I know good­ things
are doomed to never last
You yourself have been scorned
m­ore than several times,
yet, you choose to dream
and continue to ­write lines
To you it is so clear
that there is something there,
­but I'd be such a liar
if I attempted to share
my perception of u­s,
what was and what will be
You're hoping to have a chance,
but ­you don't know the real me
I'm not sure what I want,
though, you ­may be the real deal,
but a relationship right now
just isn't som­ething I feel.

What puts a smile on my face
is a smile on yours
When we sit and talk
and your problems you pour
I like you even more
when the same you do for me
When you say, "I understand,"
you're the friend of the century
I welcome your presence
because every moment counts
Time with you is like love
taken in large amounts
There's no such thing as too close
You never stray too far
What I really like about ya
is that you know who you are
You never spend your time
trying to convince others
that you are nice and kind
You just let them discover
We know where we stand
Outsiders need not apply
They see not what I do
when looking at your eyes
We connect on a level
different than most
You're my constant guest
I'm proud to be your host
You and me together
is so uncomparable;
what dreams are made of
or a love parable

You cut me so deep
that I wanted to bleed
You weren't what I wanted,
to me you were a need
Basically, you were
a necessity of life
If you cost all the money in the world
you'd be worth the price
At one point
you could've been my wife
Every thought I had about you
just seemed so right
Your name, your smile, your stare,
your smell, your walk, your hair
You were perfect, everything was there
What I didn't count on was for you to not care
I can't believe I wasted
so much time
I could've saved ink
when I wrote those lines
telling you
how much I loved you
and how I would never
put anyone above you

I drive away
and you come along
I suggest you stay,
but you sing the song,
drowning out my voice
with your own
We played this same game
at your home
Our lives are set
on the same path
Neither one of us
are willing to go last
Together we discover
what lies beneath
Open like the ocean,
swimming so deep

We can't leave
these shared memories
They don't belong to you
They don't belong to me
We are so right
We are so strong
We are so weak
We are so wrong

You move away
I move with you
Why do we stay?
We haven't a clue
So many chances we had
to disconnect,
but all those times
we weren't ready yet
Now that we're older
things have turned around
I fell off the cloud
and I'm coming down
down-to-earth
is what you've been
Now I'm ready
to be a friend

We can't leave
these shared memories
They don't belong to you
They don't belong to me
We are so right
We are so strong
We are so weak
We are so wrong

We try so hard
to grow apart
without a clue
of where to start
Nothing can change
unless we let it
We can't drive away
until we get in
We're letting go
at our own pace
Allowing a chance
to create space
When we depart
I know we'll understand
It's just the cards
dealt from our hands

I believe her to be insane
because she's listing her requirements
and I've managed to meet most of them,
but I'm still her Windex-ed glass window

I believe her to be insane
because she claimed she was jocking me
though she'd only met my voice
and lived near my Cali family

I believe her to be insane
because she liked me when she annoyed me
and was quick to end the years
after I said she was skinny

I believe her to be insane
because she could be straight up with everyone,
but whenever it came around to us
her mouth remained completely shut

I believe her to be insane
because I was more natural than her ex
Then suddenly she became work-obsessed,
but found time to marry the ex

I believe her to be insane
because she ******* up her life to get my attention
She was always beautiful, but deader inside
Another stereotypical trailer park girl

I believe her to be insane
because she searched the mall parking lot
to leave a bocay of daises
on the windshield of my car

I believe her to be insane
because she sang "Before You Walk Out of My Life"
more beautifully than Monica herself
exclusively to me late at night

I believe her to be insane
because she walked miles to see me at work
with bruised, sore, raw feet
to be somewhere safe away from him

I believe her to be insane
because she let me go in a heartbeat,
then she pleaded for my forgiveness,
then she let me go in another heartbeat

I believe her to be insane
because our poetry complimented perfectly,
but I wasn't the one she pictured
because of not being the desired ethnicity

I believe her to be insane
because she cherished me so much,
poetically revealed me to be the catch,
but she's the one that lost touch

She was always saught after
by the other guys,
with her long, dark hair
and beautifully dark eyes
They were always checkin' out
her wide hips and lean thighs
Everything about her body
was just at that right size,
but, to her life,
all those guys were inferior
All they cared about
was checkin' out her exterior,
but I became superior
by checkin' out her interior
Once I saw how she was
I had no more fear of her
Once I got into her brain
I saw a personality
She was smart, funny, polite,
full of originality
Not long after that
we became good friends,
but every chance that I got
the rules I would bend
I had strong feelings for her,
but did she have the same for me?
Was I even prepared
for the pain she could bring?
I'll never know
because I'm too shy to ask,
but I'm happy being her friend
for as long as it'll last

Face the fact
that I'm never coming back
Let your tears unify with the rain drops
as they fall to the ground
Know that I've moved on
with nothing left to hold
as concerns to
the path that I chose
It's like the clouds reflect
the mood we are in
Like they know what it means
to lose a close friend
Yet, they can move away,
dissipate, and be free
From their point of view
I'd feel sorry for me
because I'm dealing with you
with the worst of results
Our best of intentions
make it no one's fault
Emotionally
I always blame you,
but logically
I know it takes two

Lord, she's so beautiful,
but she's still my friend
I've done everything I can
to keep her safe from other men
Which isn't saying much
because this girl's so smart,
but what I've tried to save
is the innocence of her heart
With every bad man in her life
I just try to remain the same
because I've worked so hard
to have such a good name
and be someone that's reliable,
someone that she can trust,
but on my side of the coin
it's more than just lust
I throw her off my scent
by mentioning other girls
Little does she know
that she encompasses my world
How can she not know
that she's what I envision
when I think of the perfect woman
and provide the description?
**** any girl alive
that doesn't think they're beautiful!
Their heads are in the clouds
and their world's in cubicles
One day very soon here
I'll help her open her eyes
and maybe she'll realize
she's known the perfect guy

I’m ready to fall in love, but not ready to be loved
I‘m prone to giving freely, but not accepting of hugs
It’s all about confidence and accepting who I can trust
And how I lack faith in someone fighting for “us”
I've experienced and witnessed people’s abandonment
If I had to go through that again I just couldn't handle it
Seen families broken apart, dealing with broken hearts
To prevent that in my life I turn my back at the start
However, I've discovered that I’m too ready to die
Because I’m afraid to live by giving love another try
I’d do anything to float in the dreams that I had built
But once reality set in it filled my brain to the hilt
Broken promises to myself have me wrought with guilt
Making me feel like I deserve to wallow in this filth
I wish I could stop myself from wanting what they have
I have to tell myself, “You never wanted it that bad.”
Confident in my decisions, better choices made me glad
If that’s the case, though, then why do I always feel sad?
That’s only until I find something expensive to purchase
An escape from the emotions, masking that I’m uncertain
On a journey to find out what the most beautiful view is
Is it my immaturity that allows me to even do this?
Driving in circles trying not to dwell on what’s hurtful
Dawn rises to reveal an overwhelming array of purple
Golden leaves on the trees rustle softly in the breeze
Gentle sun rays glisten off the surface of the sea
This is how I know someone’s trying to talk to me
To help me come to see all of the things I could be
The last step that is left is for me to just believe
In the things I have to offer and all of my various abilities
Though I've never been one to see what other’s see in me
I’m always blocking progression due to my insecurities
Yet what a hypocrite I am for the words I often convey
If given the opportunity I would build you up all day
Ironically I would mean everything that I would say
Hoping our foundation will give me incentive to stay
But nowadays I seem focused on pushing others away
The fact is this world wasn't built for a cat to be a stray
What are my options when others are too busy to play?
I guess it means I still need to grow up in so many ways

All day yesterday was the best day of my life
Nothing went wrong, everything went right
Tracking all the factors that helped make it so
Reinvigorates me to continue with my goals
There’s a thought that returns, maybe coincidental,
But there is a common thread that is sequential
Early in the morning is when I first saw you
And at the end of the day you were in my rear view
So you were there with me from sunrise to sunset
Any moment we had together I never felt upset
No awkward instances, only natural feelings
No pressure to make myself seem more appealing
You make me feel like I’m almost where I need to be
To have something that you may one day need from me
Leisurely I will continue to approach the situation
Because this is a path that I want to keep straightened
At the prime of our lives for the time of our lives
We just have to be willing to hold on for the ride
Hopefully I’ll have you before the towel’s thrown in
Together we will laugh at what could have been
All the bullets that we dodged and the ones still lodged
Deep into our hearts, but they’ll seem like a mirage
Compared to the dreams that we’ve chosen to live
After each other’s hearts that we’ve chosen to give
It feels so strange to be so close to these emotions
I’m hopeful for the future, for once my mind’s open
To all of the possibilities that life could deal to me
I’m so thrilled to see what will be revealed to me
Whatever happens to me, I need you to be there too
Since I know with you there we could see it all through
I can’t recall a single bad day in which you were involved
Even in one of your foul moods I was still so enthralled
That’s just the kind of person I will always choose to be
Doing whatever it takes to always have you with me
Especially when extreme patience is all that’s required
I’ll work hard at this job, no way am I ever getting fired
Committed until I’m beyond the age of being retired
Whistling while I work until the day I might expire
One day, to all these thought you won’t be oblivious
One day I’ll pursue you with an attitude that’s vigorous
Until that day comes I’ll patiently wait off to the side
For an opportunity to make you my source of pride
