I appreciate all that you do

Couple hours disappear

You and I are standing near

But instead of holding tight

We argue ‘bout who’s right

Who does what and on what days

Who is helpful in more ways

Who’s responsible, who’s not

And we both keep getting hot

I appreciate all that you do

I am happiest only with you

I may not tell you thanks all the time

But I mean it and you’re love of mine…

Then we keep it in for weeks

And instead of kissing cheeks

We give off an angry stare

And we find it hard to share

Then we finally forgive

And in peace we mostly live

Up until again we war

About who’s doing this chore.

I appreciate all that you do

I am happiest only with you

I may not tell you thanks all the time

But I mean it and you’re love of mine…

This kept going on and on

Like a never-ending song

Until midnight yesterday

When we finally found a way

And this heartfelt loving cure

Was to simply reassure

That our efforts are worthwhile

By going the extra mile.

I appreciate all that you do

I am happiest only with you

I may not tell you thanks all the time

But I mean it and you’re love of mine…
