I could serenade you forever
I could serenade you forever,
but my guitar has broken strings.
I could write you a love poem,
but my pencil is broken too.
I could kneel at the bosom of your heart,
if it wasn’t for me arthritis.
I could dine you with expensive food and wine
but the super market shut ten minutes ago.
I could kiss you and love you forever
but sorry love, we haven’t got time,
Cause the footy starts in just, five minutes time.
