It's what my heart just yearns to say

In ways that can't be said

It's what my rotting bones will sing

When the rest of me is dead

It's what's engraved upon my heart

In letters deeply worn

Today I somehow understand the reason I was born

'Cause outwardly he says, I try so hard to make you laugh at me

And she, she does, she laughs

As though she not heard the joke ten thousand times before

And he adores her, he watches her get dressed

As though she's hurtling through time

Oh, darling please be mine

She promises to fight them all, when it all becomes too much

And he, he curses at the world for leaving him behind

And then he's falling out of touch

And she is stronger than he's ever been, he knows

She brushes her hand through his hair

He's got so much fucking hair

And he holds her close just to keep the world at bay

And when they're sure no one can hear them

She'll turn to him to say, she'll turn to him and say

It's not fair, It's not fair how much I love you

It's not fair, 'cause you make me laugh

When I'm actually really fucking cross at you for something

And he'll say

Oh how, oh how unreasonable

How unreasonably in love I am, with everything you do

I'll spend my days so close to you, 'cause if I'm standing here

Maybe everyone will think I'm alright

I've seen enough he says, I know exactly what I want

And it's this life that we've created, inundated with the fated thought of you

And if you asked me to, if you asked me I would lose it all

Like petals in a storm, 'cause darling I was born

To press my head between your shoulder blades at night, when light is fading

Just to let you know I'm old, waylaid and feels like I am wading into

Carpet burns and carousels, Christ you'll be the death of me

And calm throughout his melodrama she will turn

And say, "dear heart It's me, its me

You don't need to pretend to be someone you're not

'Cause it's not like I've never heard you fart and snore

And for some god forsaken reason, I'm still here love like I've always been before"

And he'll say

"It's not fair, It's not fair how much I love you

It's not fair 'cause you make me weep when

I'm just trying to watch The Office with my yoghurt"

And she'll say

"Oh how, oh how unreasonable

How unreasonably in love I am with everything you do

I'll spend my days so close to you, 'cause if I'm standing here

Then maybe everyone will think I'm cool"

How unfair, how unfair they'll sing as they dance across the darling rooftop wreck

He'll trip and she'll pretend not to have seen

Burying her head into his chest and clinging to the moment

"Where have you been?"

She'll whisper "I've waited oh, so long, for you to come"

And as the stars above them hum and hear them

He'll turn to her and say, "that's what she said"

It's not fair, oh, it's not fair how much I love you

It's not fair 'cause you make me ache you bastard

And he'll say

Oh how, oh how unreasonable

How unreasonably in love I am with everything you do

I'll spend my days so close to you, 'cause if I'm stood here

Then I'm stood here

And I'll stand here

I'll stand here with you
