Stick around
Let me lose the keys to our car
Let me steal your clothes and claim 'em as mine
Let me keep you up late knowing we both have work tomorrow
I want you to stick around
I wanna burn the food the first time I try and make you dinner
Stare in the dark and whisper back and forth when we're both afraid to close our eyes and drift a little
I wanna argue with you and make up in 30 minutes
I want you to wake me up with stories of your dreams
I want to drive in the car and make images out of each cloud
I want you to stick around
We can pick up each other when we're down
I'm not a Queen and you have no crown
But we can rule the world together
As long as you stick around
The rhyme scheme is a little iffy and i'm sorry if that doesn't flow, i'm just like that sometimes and I like my poems like that.
