The Important One

From All Now2024

Lyrics

The Important One

Shrunk my clothes, broke my cup You fell asleep and I stayed up Scratched yourself and snored at night Made me watch Forensic Files when my mother died You made it clear, it didn't bother you If I came and went from any room Oh, not so much future wife An accessory to your single life Shouldn't have to change for anyone Leave it up to us to orbit your sun Don't you worry, honey There's work to be done You're the important one
