You had to endure years to get here
That’s what my costar said
The night I lit every candle in my house
Eucalyptus diffusing and
Steaming the wrinkles out of my favorite blouse
I cleaned the bathroom even
Wiped down the handles with care
Wrote inspirational things on the mirror
For you to read in there
I threw all my mess in the closet
Straightened the art on the walls
Listed three things I love about
Myself on a trip down the hall
See my heart gets racing at the thought
Of stolen glances with you under a cloud of smoke
I like to dance don’t get me wrong
But I paid a cover charge to give you candy as a joke
My horoscope said
You had to endure years to get here
Maybe that here
Is when you are near.
