but what we have is everything

You ask me for dinner, 

You ask me for life, 

You ask me for help,

Every single night. 

 

You ask me for money, 

You know we don't have, 

You ask me for everything, 

As if I own the world on my back. 

 

You ask me for hours, 

You ask me to come home, 

You know I have to work, 

Just for the things that we own. 

 

I don't have everything, 

I don't own the best stuff,

But we have what they don't, 

We have what really counts

We have love, no matter what.

  • i wanna be yours

    my breakfast cereal used to turn soggy in milk,

    and now the flavors blend like a rainbow,

    and every time i watch that show,

    i wonder what it would be like if i was in your arms,

  • omens

    a black cat crossed the street

    as i was speeding down it,

    i came to a halt, 

    but it was already gone. 

    i guess that it's lucky:

    i didn't kill the cat,

    but as i stepped out to look where it stood,

  • Stargazing

    Is it so wrong for you to look at me?

    Is it so bad to smile my way?

    You act like I'm untouchable, a flea,

    But yet you kiss me whispers and my hair you play.
