You said you made the sauce extra saucy
I’d asked if you’d cook dinner but I didn’t mean to sound bossy
You also swept the floor and washed the dishes
You did all the chores
You know, you hold all my wishes
You said you like our house
Remember when we used to dream of this
Just being alone together
The other night we were too cold to cuddle
Our feet were like ice
But for a moment we huddled
It was really nice
We giggled then went to bed
The pasta tonight was so good
Chocolate for dessert
Married for 10 years
Everyone’s gone away
The world spins but you and I are inert
Eating our spaghetti, huddling within our walls
You’re the one who gets me
You’re always around when no one else calls
We keep the heat set low
But in your eyes I still see a glow
Thanks for loving me
My heart is warm, my stomach fed, my soul nurtured
I can’t think of a single reason to ever leave
