Strawberries – Written June 2001 (Aged 26)

Strawberries

i would buy you strawberries everyday
if i could,
if i knew what to say
then i would
i would book a table at four by the window
a romantic meal,
for every day of the week
if i could,
if i knew what to say
then i would
i would buy you strawberries everyday
you are an angel
a princess and a fighter all rolled into one
let me book it,
a table at four by the window
if only i could
i would tell you that you are the one
if i knew what to say
then i would
i would buy you strawberries everyday
a romantic flower
for every petal of our being
i know that feelings grow hour by hour
