Ode To a Cougar

Beautiful woman by my side Soul and body coincide I love you way too much sometimes Or perhaps it's not enough Back when you were my blushing bride We both were sorely terrified The kids, the house and minivan The years flew by in a flash Then came the day when you walked out For another your love poured out Shelter elsewhere you would seek In the arms of a younger man I rise up early in my bed Music playing in my head What was the tune you used to sing? So sweetly to my ears "I would never love another 'Cuz you're the Dad and I'm the Mother" But your heart was turned astray By the face of a younger man
