Kiss me darling
Kiss me
And pretend you love me
Put my picture
On your antique coffee table
So your mother will stop
Worrying about you
When we are at the Bistro on Main
Flirt with me
With abandon
Like you could tear off all of my clothes
And make love in front of shocked patrons
Drive home
Kissing passionately
And make believe you want me
Like some sex craze animal
Faking every orgasm
Like some cheap porn star
Buy each other "thoughtful" gifts
From Hallmark
And keep telling yourself
I'm all you ever wanted
The prince charming from
Your every fairy tale
Fake a cheesy smile as we stand
In front of the preacher
And fool our families
So nobody will know our secret
Have a few picture perfect kids
Lexus
Good job
Hey when the kids move out
We could just divorce
And stay "friends"
Maybe if we believe long enough
We'll wake up in love
And if nothing else
We'll both agree
That it was one heck of a fantasy.

Very touching, an air of sadness lifes to short to spend it with anyone who is not quiet right, we only get one chance at it.

Oh well, at least you'd know from the start she really doesn't love you. It's better than finding out after years of marriage.
Hope you find the right one and save yourself alot of heartache.
