Presents and Presence

I love to give you presents
Let me buy you things
I know your taste in clothing
Necklaces and rings 

Nothing too expensive
That's for another time
Right now just little keepsakes
And lots and lots of rhymes

Don't look for any knockoffs
Just tell me what you want
I love to give you presents 
You're not the type to vaunt

You have an innate beauty
You're gorgeous on your own
You're natural and candid
But when you dress full blown

You take my breath away from me
You're incredible to observe 
Onstage a living dynamo
Contained but full of verve

I'd love to see you unconstrained
To watch you let it out
There's no one else who's quite like you
Of that I have noooo doubt
