god, you're so cute sometimes
you were painting your toenails
(a maroon color, darling
except you kept calling it burgundy)
you said, "let me paint yours"
and i let you
not because i wanted maroon toenails

but because i couldn't help
but love you
and if painting my toenails means you laugh
(laugh=happy)
then i'll let you paint them all you want
