Good Heart Can I sit on the couch with you and watch tv? Can we laugh and tell jokes, late into the night? Can we play music and sing old songs we enjoy together? Can we be more than acquaintances I don’t want to be a friend of friend I want to love you I want you to be mine Can we love each other? Do I even know what I am saying when I say I love you and I want to enjoy you Is it only what I can get? Can we love each other? People don’t understand our dance “How foolish you looked today…” But I want show you I want them to have you too Can we love each other? I know you will curl up around me when I cry in the bed You have given me peace before when I am confused you’ll do it again Can we love each other? When I said I wanted to see your face You showed me a glance but then hugged me from behind You want closeness and to have my back Can we love each other? You smell like memories in perfume and ***** stale water You look like freedom in a hospital You feel sunshine on a snow day Can we love each other? You sound like more than I have been willing to hear I don’t want to just get you I want to have you Can I love you? the one who delights in such funny things Can I love you? the one who likes to buy fake flowers with me Can I love you? when I don’t fully understand you Then you say, "Remember, you have a good heart"

Good Heart
Good Heart Can I sit on the couch with you and watch tv? Can we laugh and tell jokes, late into the night? Can we play music and sing old songs we enjoy together?
