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 I love your soul
I never forget you in my prayers
I never have a bad thing to report
Youre my picture on the wall
Youre my vision in the hall
Youre the one Im talking to
When I get in from my work
You are my girl and you dont even know it
I am livin out the life of a poet
I am the jester in the ancient court
And youre the funny little frog in my throat
My eyesights fading, my hearings dim
I cant get insured for the state Im in
Im a danger to myself, Ive been starting fights
At the party at the club on a Saturday night
But I dont get disapproving from my girl
She gets all the highlights wrapped in pearls
Youre my picture on the wall
Youre my vision in the hall
Youre the one Im talking to
When I get in from my work
You are my girl and you dont even know it
I am livin out the life of a poet
I am the jester in the ancient court
And youre the funny little frog in my throat
Had a conversation with you at night
Its a little one-sided but thats all right
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
Youve come to save my life again
I dont dare to touch your hand
I dont dare to think of you in a physical way
And I dont know how you smell
You are the cover of my magazine
Youre my fashion tip, a living museum
Id pay to visit you on rainy Sundays
Ill maybe tell you all about it someday
