after years together
it’s good you and i don’t dress identically
wear hair and shoes like one another
prefer to eat exactly alike
enjoy indistinguishable hobbies
have equivalent talents
read only the same books
think and talk as duplicates
because it has occurred to me
now that I’ve noticed in the mirror especially
visible proof, others see it too
for one – you’re shorter than i,
you see, we are different people
it's what makes the world go round
vive la difference
now how about a hug

i love you
i love you more than poetry,
summer days, hot dogs, warm sand, and baseball,
sweet corn, cross walks, my favorite books at the library.
green lights and Broadway musicals are nice,
so are pizza and spaghetti.
you are the sun and moon and stars for me
the clouds, the shining waves on the sea
practically, but not completely
not everything, i mean, sure, i love you
but i’m not ridiculous

i'd love
i’d love to love you
a few weeks would do
to give my heart
but hold some back
could upset you, i suppose
can make you laugh, fix things
and will eat anything
we’d be happy, have fun
of course nothing would get done
soft touches, cold lunches
and warm smiles,
time simply divine
although, instead, if you’ll be my friend
no hearts will be broken
no wrongs need we mend
i’ll dream of the ocean
you go read a book
do your own thing
we’ll talk like sister and brother
although if you have time
call when you feel like
and i’ll come do you
up one side the block
and down the other

About You
songs about you
someone should write some
songs about you,
you know I do, babe
this one’s for you
there was a time n April meant good fortune
that’s the time we met and started courtin’
now April comes it brings to me a sadness
wrapped around memories of madness
when kissing you was gasoline on fire
arcing like a hot electric wire
songs about you, someone should write some
songs about you, cause you know I’m through, babe
although this one’s for you, babe,
it’s the last one for you
someone should write some
songs about you,
you know I do, babe
this one’s for you
there was a time n April meant good fortune
that’s the time we met and started courtin’
now April comes it brings to me a sadness
wrapped around memories of madness
when kissing you was gasoline on fire
arcing like a hot electric wire

special love song
let me sing you a song of how it can be
a special love song for you and me
soft lights and flowers
we’ll spend the hours as you’d like them to be
just a little bit for you and me
here comes my tune to fill up your head
the sun and the moon flies over our bed
since time beyond ages the wisest of sages
sees life like you’d like it to be, just a little for you and me
carry on to Eldorado
by pyramids and golden bars
fly the Phoenix from the ashes
beyond the stars,
just a little for you and me
a special love song for you and me
soft lights and flowers
we’ll spend the hours as you’d like them to be
just a little bit for you and me
here comes my tune to fill up your head
the sun and the moon flies over our bed
since time beyond ages the wisest of sages
sees life like you’d like it to be, just a little for you and me
carry on to Eldorado
by pyramids and golden bars
fly the Phoenix from the ashes
beyond the stars,
just a little for you and me

secret love
i love clocks
they keep on ticking
and isn’t it amazing
time doesn’t exist
oh, time is here, we made it so
and you’d better not be late
cause that’s bad,
I know, I know
despite universal laws and regulations
I like clocks anyway
every time, anytime
cause they keep ticking and ticking
