The Woman You Love

She never needs to compromise
Strips paint with a simple cut of her eyes
As warm as a summer sun; as cold as a winter moon
Likes to relax with a book on a rainy afternoon

She lays tables cooks our food
Laughs a deeper laugh for humour rude and crude
I’m never sure what she’s thinking or what she feels
A kiss and a smile for every little wound she heals

Every broken toy fixed up as good as new
And the woman you love
Can do the funniest things to you

This woman carries so many roles
Solutions always there within her folds
Picks up the dreams and schemes that I just leave behind
So loved, so loved, so loved, so loved that woman of mine.

Wise, shrewd, astute yet still a little child
Calm tranquil placid yet still a little wild
Understands so much and very rarely shocked
In the blink of an eye
You can be blanked out; you can be blocked

Every broken toy fixed up as good as new
And the woman you love
Can do the funniest things to you
The woman you love.
