I'm trying to figure out
How to describe you
In five words or less,
Without a flaw or mess,
But then how could it be about you?
Cars and toys,
Mustangs and computers...
But it won't do at all for you.
There's so much to you.
And some great writers of the world
Have probably used more
Than just a random napkin in the glovebox
To compose the greatest songs ever heard.
But all I have is just what I give,
And I can't describe you anymore than that.
That's just it.
The smiles, the kisses,
The stars, the grass,
They're only there in your presence.
You, you, you...
In five words or less.
