Oh Lord won’t you send Colin Firth here to me
Or at least maybe a reasonable facsimile
His quiet demeanor and dark looks that smoulder
If you send one like him, then you’ll sure bowl me over
Just saw him today as he played that Darcy
Pride & Prejudice was always my favorite story
In Bridget Jones diary he played such a sweetie
He loved her for her and he loved her completely
So if there’s one like him just kicking around
Just tell him there’s a home for him that you have found
I’ll arrange my own shipping and pay postage due
Send him right here and I’ll surely owe you

But now I’ve just thought I’d like one like Hugh Grant
Now there is a man who can sure make me laugh
He’s tall and he’s blonde and a little unsure
But if you send him on here, I don’t think I’ll stay pure

Now maybe dear Lord, you don’t know what I need
These two are so different, so you’d better pay heed
Don’t know myself, so how can I find love
Unless
Is there a two for one special , up there above??

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

May love and light always shine upon you!

Sandra, yep, I'll take Johnny Depp too!!! Glad I made you smile sweetie

Rusty, hey, today's another day, I'm askin for more today, just haven't wrote the poem to God yet!!! lol

Star, okay, when I'm done, I'll ship one over. But it may be a very loooooong time!!! lol

Duncan, well now, if that isn't an offer a girl can't refuse. So my response to that:

Well the lord did not see fit to send a Darcy or a Hugh
But there’s something bout a Duncan that I think will more than do
He’s charming and he’s studly, and dare I say a real sweet guy
And even better, he has a twin, he calls him d.u.i.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?
