Honey, lovin' you is the greatest thing,
|
I get to be myself and I get to sing,
|
I get to play at being irresponsible,
|
I come home late and love your soul,
|
I never forget you in my prayers,
|
I never have a bad thing to report.
|
|
You're my picture on the wall.
|
You're my vision in the hall,
|
You're the one I'm talking to,
|
When I get in from my work,
|
You are my girl, and you don't even know it,
|
I am living out the life of a poet,
|
I am the jester in the ancient court,
|
And you're the funny little frog in my throat.
|
|
My eyesight's fading, my hearing's dim,
|
I can't get insured for the state I'm in,
|
I'm a danger to myself I've been starting fights,
|
At the party at the club on a Saturday night,
|
But I don't get disapproving from my girl,
|
She gets all the highlights wrapped in pearls.
|
|
You're my picture on the wall.
|
You're my vision in the hall,
|
You're the one I'm talking to,
|
When I get in from my work,
|
You are my girl, and you don't even know it,
|
I am living out the life of a poet,
|
I am the jester in the ancient court,
|
And you're the funny little frog in my throat.

|
Had a conversation with you last night,
|
It was a little one-sided but that's alright,
|
I tell you in the kitchen about my day,
|
You sit on the bed in the dark changing places,
|
With the ghost that was there before you came,
|
You've come to save my life again.
|
|
I don't dare to touch your hand,
|
I don't dare to think of you,
|
In a physical way,
|
And I don't know how you smell,
|
You are the cover of a magazine,
|
You're my fashion tip, a living museum,
|
I'd pay to visit you on rainy Sundays,
|
And maybe tell you all about it, someday.
