I Love You

when it was all blue
the sky, the water and my eyes
i tossed the idea around
but i was late to the party
so making up for lost time
we stumbled upon a few dance steps 
and ended up 
buying a house...raising a few a cats
and laughing about those things we said we would...someday
we are far from perfect
far from Albuquerque
and not as far along as we thought we'd be
but love is love  you can't buy it, and if it's real you can't sell it either
i always thought it was the icing on the cake
but it is the cake
all my quirks and your self doubt
don't add up to a hill a of beans
you' my soul mate
i love you
