You keep me steady

When i swim too far out

You can talk to babies

And make teachers proud

You're a safe space for animals

You ask and they come

I'm sure they feel what i feel

They're invited and they're loved

You're smart and you're fierce

I want you on my side in a fight

You're the perfect mojito

You're dancing in the garden at night

You bought all of my coolest things

My compliments are yours

You give me a load of shit

You do most of the chores

You work for what you want

And step forward when you're asked

You belt out all the high notes

You'll always have a go for the laugh

You keep my life fulfilled

And my weeks with great plans

You take the piss getting ready

You take the weight off of my back

And i think about our house

With the big cozy bedroom

And the plants that fill every corner

And the garden full of toadstools

That we sit in on the weekend

And watch the springtime drift by

As our kids scrap with each other

As the good times fly

And all our friends think we're weird

But they'll always come to stay

And I'll do all the washing up

If you help put them away

I like you more than I like anyone

More than songs could ever say

And everything is fine in bed

With you at the end of the day

You stitched my bag back together

You stitched my life back together

And whatever happens between us

I'll owe you for that forever

It's true it's not all rainbows

But i know we'll be ok

And maybe love is futile

But i love you anyway
