My girl

\nYou’re the image of a goddess when you go out for the night,
\nNot a hair would ever dare be out of place.
\nIn a dress that cost a ransom you are every man’s delight,
\nWith the promise of tomorrow on your face.
\nBut the picture of your beauty that could cause my heart to break
\nIs the you I see each morning, when the sun shakes you awake.<\/p>\n
You’re a model on the catwalk when you dress yourself to thrill
\nAnd your lips are ruby offerings of love.
\nEvery man just wants to hold you, every woman wants to kill
\nYou’re a angel on vacation from above.
\nBut you don’t need Paris fashion to be everything to me,
\nIn your jeans and tatty t-shirt you’re the sweetest thing to see.<\/p>\n
You attract the paparazzi in creations that reveal,
\nYou dismiss them with a smile that says it all.
\nEvery face that turns towards you has to wonder if you’re real,
\nOr a Cinders flown by magic to the ball.
\nBut you kiss me when you’re happy, garden dirt beneath your nails,
\nAnd your lovesong some call snoring, is a call that never fails.<\/p>\n
I don’t love you as a pin-up, or a painted gangster’s moll,
\nAs a film star worth a million bucks a day.
\nI’m not here to see a statue or a living Barbie doll,
\nYou are those but they aren’t why I’ll always stay.
\nWithout make-up in the morning, you’re my lover and my friend;
\nI get all I ever wanted and the World gets “let’s pretend”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
