Almost Perfect Day

Today is just one of those days.
Where the sky is really truly blue,
And the clouds are the kind you want to sleep on.
The leaves are dead,
But they make us all happy by skipping on sidewalks,
Piling up for us to scuff through.
And it's chilly,
But it's really just a good excuse to wear a light jacket and a scarf.
And all the music you hear,
Is the perfect feeling for a perfect day.
And your outfit is perfect,
And you didn't have to try hard to put it together.
And today obviously isn't a perfect day,
Because perfect is never fun.
But it is very close.
I'm going to take advantage of this almost perfect day,
And try to be happy all day.
So people will feel like I've been almost perfect today too.
And everything will be almost perfect.

    I want to write you a song, one that would make you think of me on a whole new level,
    One you could listen to when we're apart.

    Promise, Someday

    Someday.
    Someday we will hug and kiss like its no big deal,
    Wrap our arms around each other and walk down the street.
    Someday I’ll have a special name, that only you call me,
    Something that makes me smile,

    Always something

    It's always got to be something.
    That one thing that takes the wind out from under your wings making you tremble,
    and fall.
    And it's always the something you generally expect,
    But hoped wouldn't happen.
