What a sweet sweater sweetheart
Especially the way the buttons fall apart
Should I talk to you with my mind and wit?
Or do you prefer the way the heart can split
.
Love we discovered in drive-in movies
Throwing tongue darts missing by fractions of lips
Dental scares dismissed for another awkward attempt
Then came that wafting, I was frightened I broke you
You bonerized me into epileptic fits of groans
You thought you’d broken me down to the bone
.
Decades later we’ve become closet degenerates
Love gators gnawing at the bit showing our wit
Try this you say in the heater of dark
I hear a candle lighter scratch for a spark
Candle fire-really? You can do much better I say
But then off comes your cloths, and off comes that sweater
And we laugh because after years I still feel I love you better
I love you better, without your sweet sweater sweetheart
Especially the way you let your buttons fall apart
