What's Wrong with a Straight Up Love Song

I had given her my heart officially

It wasn't long before we hit a dark patch

Certain histories are full of pain

cnd the truth is sometimes hard to see

It can make you start to feel a little insane

cnd you ask, "How did my little heart end up in this one?"

Well nothing can be easy all the time, no siree

cnd love is more than fluff

Sometimes it's thorny as can be

ct first I may have been trying to avoid the scratches

But now I've learned to focus on the balm

cnd after each tornado that we pass through

There's a bigger sense of calm

cnd I know this makes my heart keep growing

For both of us it's brand new territory

Never had we been with one so far

So when I get a little lost

I hope you don't get out of the car

For you'd take my little heart right with you

Now don't get me wrong

I'm know I'm not the only driver in this rig

I think we've got ourselves a tractor here

Let's see how deep we can dig

'Cause a-deep deep diggin' is what you like to do

cnd I'm so glad that I get to dig with you

cnd I wonder what discoveries await us

cs we dig up the dirt, we pile it up

cnd that makes a mountain called trust

cnd the objects we find, from ancient times

They all piece together somehow, they must

cnd the mysteries down there, they take to the air

They come to be known as dust

But the journey itself is what it's all about

So when I think about that stormy weather

Responsible for this journey that we've shared

I want to make it clear that I'm so thankful

I'm so glad that you dared

To share that big old heart with me, dear

Now I just want you to be happy as can be, dear

cnd I hope we'll have many more cups of tea, dear

cnd I really do wish the best for your career

cnd not just 'cause that could mean less work for me, dear

I love ya 'til the cows come home to feed, dear

cnd I still love ya when the cows eat the whole field clear

cnd I know that you won't eat those cows with me, dear

But that's your choice and I want you to be free, dear

Besides, there's so many things on which we agree, dear

So I hope you're glad that you ended up with me, dear

cnd there's just one more thing I'd like to make real clear

This old world would have a big hole without you here
