Love Poem: Comedy

Comedy

Everything turns to grey
When you’re changing every day
When you watch him walk on by
When you scream and when you cry

When you’re clinging to my heart
And say he’s tearing you apart
And I know you’ll never say
“Will you, can you take his place?”

I’ll help you drive him from your home
And tell you, you are not alone
I’ll help to find you a new man
I know you’ll never understand

It’s so very funny
I-I can’t stop laughing
Oh it’s all so lovely
For you, my dear
Now everything’s in place

I’ll find a boy who knows the score
Just the kind you’re looking for
With sugar hair and icy eyes
Who’ll never ever tell you lies

I’ll even play you’re little bride’s maid
And know that all my debts are paid
And want to drive right off a cliff
When you say your vows and have your kiss

And when you call me years from then
With three kids and a picket fence
You’ll ask me if I found a girl
And I’ll scratch my arms and want to hurl

It’s so very funny
I-I can’t stop laughing
Oh it’s all so lovely
For you, my dear
Now everything’s in place

“Never found the right one,” I’ll say
As my night becomes the day
And we’ll both laugh at years gone by
And when you hang up I’ll start to cry

This is what my fortune holds
As your comedy unfolds
Until I find a girl in white
To make the darkness fell alright

And maybe I will feel again
Even if I just can’t win
I’ll find a pretty girl and wait
And hope she makes those old feelings fade

It’s so very funny
I-I can’t stop laughing
Oh it’s all so lovely
For you, my dear
Now everything’s in place
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
It’s so very funny
Oh, I can’t stop laughing
Oh it’s all so lovely
Oh, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
For you, my dear
Now everything’s in place
