I know you don't want to change me.
Even if you did it would be a futile attempt.
You wouldn't change the river that roams free.
Because nature would hold you in contempt.

You patiently put up with my darkest days.
When my mouth spills oil and my eyes flash.
But your grace and devotion is always on display.
You're ***** waits for my inevitable crash.

When my eyes get distant and look down the road.
You let me dream and reminisce of the past.
You smile and laugh as if my stories never get old.
Like a child my mood changes lightning fast.

15 years removed from when I said love is a scam.
And with one look you can make this man melt.
You've accepted and loved me for who I am.
Without you love is something I would've never felt.
