Twinkle now with hope.
Let all your inner light shine.
We are here but once.
We are here but once
Cherish the sweet gift of life
Smell the roses now!
Smell the roses now!
The scent of freshly turned earth
The garden awaits
The garden awaits
For the loud sounds of aircraft.
'Would you please shut up!?'
"Would you please shut up!?"
I am trying to listen
to the grass growing.
to the grass growing
to all that makes earth precious
undying gratitude
Undying gratitude
You can expect, my dear, for
Eating all my food.
Eating all my food,
leaving plates for me to wash.
I have to wonder.
I have to wonder
Curiosity ponders
How high is the moon?
How high is the moon?
Hung amidst the distant stars
Beaming for my love
Beaming for my love,
Shining as strongly as stars:
My love's a streetlight.
My love's a streetlight
Illuminating the alley
secrets best hidden.
secrets best hidden
under top drawer at the back
secret cache of hope
secret cache of hope
ribbon wrapped and small bowtied
your words of sweet love.
Your words of sweet love
Brighten up any abyss:
'Pass the brocolli.'
Pass the brocolli
hold the mashed potatoes please
but love that gravy!
But love that gravy!
Smooch it till it's smooth and brown,
Hug it till it's cold!
Hug it till it's cold
Add sprinkles of pixie-dust
Set it free to soar
Set it free to soar
Over the airy rainbow
Away into deep space.
Away into deep space
I gaze as the twilight dims
will I get my wish?
