I won’t write this song
Or have violins that wail along
Or drain the mini bar
And watch 1930s films until the sun comes up
No I, I won’t be bereft
If you say yes
I won’t ruminate
Over all I did or did not say
And I won’t second guess
All the silences you slipped between the words you said
No my heart won’t, in two, be cleft
If you say yes
And well melodrama may well be my middle name
But boy well I was hoping your last name and mine will be the same
No I, I won’t forlorn be left
If you say yes
No I won’t, but I’ll be the luckiest
If you say yes
