I take it you're here for the job?
I've got some questions, you can sit
Answer them as best you can
So I can see if you're a fit:
Would you mow the lawn some weeks
'Cause it's the chore I hate the most?
Would you buy the groceries if
We ever do decide to host?
Would you make me homemade soup
If I came down with a cold?
Would you speak out for my sake
On the days I don't feel bold?
Would you never yell or swear
Even if we were to fight?
Would you hold me close at night
After movies fraught with fright?
Would you try to make me smile
When I'm feeling somewhat sad?
Would you raise our children right
If someday you became a dad?
Would you still want only me
Years from now when I am old?
Would you hold my hand in yours
No matter how our lives unfold?
I know I'm asking for a lot
Of that fact I am quite aware
And I know that there is no wage
That I could give to make you care
So can you do this without pay—
All these things listed above?
For I am searching for the man
Who'd deem these tasks labors of love
Happy Valentine's Day ya'll :)
