Wonderful Wake-Up

This morning you called To set me loving, To get me real And say hello to me – Not to get news, check improvement, Borrow a listening ear Or pay a courtesy. This morning you called To make me smile, To take me as me, To give me strength to be And, best of all, Beyond your impressive style, To say, believably, that you love me.

Having someone check on improvement is not the same thing as actual improvement -- much like getting news is not the same as being informed. Besides, I didn't say these things were wrong, but, by comparison, they pale.
