Love Song #16

When you were a little girl

And you were an ocean away from me

Didn't know what I wanted yet

But you were already listening to The Pixies

We were a little shy

When you were still an arm's length away from me

Didn't know what I wanted yet

But you were already reading Pipal Tree

We were a little free

We were seven seas away from anything

Finally knew what I wanted then

But you were already my best friend

You had already become my best friend

When you were teaching geometry

We were both living off of your salary

I want to thank you for not kicking me out

I wanna thank you for letting me live in our house

I wanna thank you for letting me live in our house

And finally we made a family

Make a little home then

Fill it up with children

Never mind the rest is so just

Irrelevant if we're just stardust

This dusty old world won't rest and

These dusty little kids keep stretching high

Just like the time

When you were a little middle-aged like me

And we were already 15 love songs deep

You give me too much love, so I blame you

Well, here's another love song for you

You give me too much love, well what can I do?

Well, here's another love song for you

Just another love song for you
