A perfect pair

A perfect pair Can’t eat, I can’t sleep a wink; head’s rolling in and out like the tide and I’m starting to sink Frayed nerves, chewed nails, on the brink; I’ve got so much on my mind but I just can’t think Straight ahead, far behind; always something on my mind Life’s been treating me so unkind, still I just feel we’re going to find The last piece of the puzzle, finally see the map, find your way to a smile sit here on my lap It’s not on your phone, no there isn’t an app; kiss your pretty face and give your ass a slap Like how they used to greet a newborn, that list of fears gets torn Way past due to welcome a new morn, a queen’s throne for you to adorn Leave the rest lay in the ashes of the pain, wipe your hands to cleanse the stain No more worry or disdain, time to drop that day and learn to live again You’re not beholden to anyone there, bruises and bloodstains don’t equate care Fix your gorgeous face and do your lovely hair, come and stand with me to make a perfect pair From now to the end of time, and then a little longer, every day my love for you gets stronger Take my hand, my heart my love, babe it’s always there, come and stand with me to make a perfect pair I love you Christina!
