I’m falling for you
In a wonderful way,
Thinking of you
Keeps me smiling all day.
I’m falling for you
With your warmth and your charms,
Melting my heart
When I’m safe in your arms.
I’m falling for you
And it feels so right,
Crossing my fingers
For a future so bright.
You’re an uncaring bastard and smell of piss,
You repulse me so much when you try to kiss,
You slur your words and repeat yourself over,
I want to shove you off the white cliffs of Dover.
You’re a waste of space and a loss of good air,
I’d like to see you savaged by a wild bear.
You should be castrated so you can’t reproduce,
Your balls chopped and blended, made into a mousse.
You’re a selfish drunk, a disgusting freak,
I want to beat your head with an oversized leek.
I hope one day to hear of your sad demise,
As if you hadn’t guessed, it’s you I despise.
I want you to hold me
But I push you away,
I want to talk to you
But I don’t know what to say.
I want to be rescued
But look after myself,
Enjoy being single
But not left on the shelf.
I want to be adored
But given my space,
Have a whirlwind romance
At a slow, languid pace.
I need you to want me
But to not suffocate,
Love me forever,
Please don’t let it turn to hate.
Can we run down the beach
And into the waves,
Go deep sea exploring
To underground caves.
Can we climb mountains high
To reach for the moon,
Maybe catch a lift
On a hot air balloon.
Can we lie in a field
Watching clouds in the sky,
Holding hands in the grass
As swallows fly by.
Can we snuggle up close
In a warm embrace,
Gliding through life
At our very own pace.
