When I told you that I loved you, you said,
What for ? forever more !
When I told you that I’d pick you up off the floor, you replied, open – eyed,
What for ? forever more !
When I asked how long that your love would last, your quick retort,
What for ? forever more !
When I asked why it was no longer flowers that you brought ?
Your reply was simple, a quick retort,
What for ? forever more.
When I asked you why things were never getting done,
You said that it was no longer fun,
What for ? forever more !?
So when I told you to close the door,
My response to your question was simple,
What for ? forever more !
