Not Quite The Same

I am a blizzard; you are a flurry: you are the tea leaves, I am the teapot. A Lancelot and Guinevere combo: you're the key; I'm the lock to Camelot. I am a fantasy; you are a dream: you're a blazing sun; I am a lit match. I am a firefly; you're a twinkling star: you're an itch; I'm a satisfying scratch. I'm the universe; you are the Big Bang: you're a shooting star; I'm a starry night. I'm Quasimodo, you are Notre Dame: you are the main course; I'm the appetite. I'm a violin, you're an orchestra: you are my melody, and I'm your song. I am a tango, you are a ballet: not quite the same; that's why we get along.
