Just The Way You Are
I say do
you say don't
you say will
i say won't
you talk a little
i talk a lot
you, calm
me...not.
I will argue
you will discuss
you walk away
while i'll fight
and fuss.
i am a worry wort
i question everything
you have a modo....
reveal nothing.
But,
as a team?
We are a well
oiled machine
doing our parts
responsibly.
yet,
if one asks
how we made it
so long,
the answer is
simple..
Time flies by
and the years
are gone.
now here we are
20 years has passed
are we weaker
or stronger is
the question we
ask.
one things for sure
as we look in the
mirror..
I have gray hair
and you have
no hair
we laugh at our
differences as
we each say......
I LOVE YOU
