Anything for you
Anything for you
I heard her say that she liked apples,
so I brought her home the tree.
She said she loves how the stars sparkle,
so I bought a diamond ring.
I drove her to the ocean,
when she said please pass the salt.
You probably think I spoil her,
but it's really not her fault.
You see she's everything to me,
and all I'll ever want.
She never asks for anything,
that is; except my heart.
So if the only thing I owned,
was the air that I breathe in.
Or all my pockets held was lint,
her love for me won't end.
So if you see I'm busy,
and I don't have time to talk.
I've probably found a rainbow;
I must get it home by dark.
