Give me more beer til before I get sad
Give me a bottle of smiles I can keep
Give me a reason for tying my shoes
But don’t give me lip today.

Sing me your sad lullaby after dark
Whisper your best secret under the moon
Shout me your argument until I go deaf
But don’t ask me how it’s goin’.

Paint me the reasons that small children laugh
Draw me a map to “what if it’s true”?
Color my Mondays and make them be late
But don’t write my definition.

Kiss me sweet kisses til I’m drunk with love
Un-tether my bad dreams so they float away
Carry my half finished thoughts in a jar
But don’t hold me carelessly.
