Altar

Looking so cool, acting so nice
You could charm any girl my age or younger
You look in my eyes, we stare for a while
I shy away and I feel embarrassed

I feel so bad, my thighs are so fat
And my accent is not so charming god damnit
Next time we meet, our eyes are uncertain
Of whether to smile or politely nod

Somewhere out there
There might be time and space for us

I know you want more, I feel I do too
Our friends suggest I'd join you bowling
You spin like a fool, 'n play like a star
You sweetly say hey girl, chin up

Night lingers on, we wine we dine
You change your flight to stay for longer
You reach out, when the night's been and gone
To see if more time with me can change your life

For good
Bring you trust and hope and love

At the altar I'm giving you all I've got
Channeling all my love and wisdom
And there you stand you receive you mirror
My compassion and my hope

Picking you up
handsome and calm
You make me feel pretty and hot
Silly jokes, I laugh every time
I sense you really need to feel it

Driving with you, gets me stressed out
You talk too much about your ex

She's in control, governs your mind
You're chained and blind and not ready
to see the world out here oh
Being free from fear and feist

At the altar I'm giving you all I've got
Channeling all my love and wisdom
And there you stand you receive you mirror
My compassion and my hope
