Happy Endings

Alright, this one here is for Jessica on her 25th birthday

You are naked

Standing at the other end

Of this poison arrow

I am William Tell

And you are the girl

With the golden apple

You are hungry to be

Swept off your feet

You wanna get it out in the open

But my aim is often weak

And you fear

My shoulder's sloping

Your split ends

Will end up falling anyway

Before the weight of the apple world

Gets to turn them all grey

And your eyes

They need

Calming down

Well, you are wise

And you are free

To let the apple touch the ground

Or keep standing tall

Yeah, this won't hurt at all

You are half asleep

Half of a girl

Half of a child

Maybe six feet deep as tall as the world

Up to your eyes

And you are the hogging all the sheets

Often, balling them up

Even drawing the line

And spending half of your time

Deciding to roll over

And when you do

I'll be there with a smile

Expanding far and wide

And I pull you in much closer

In my dreams

You are the queen of the ball

Though sometimes you off me head

But to me, that's a happy ending

For you, I'd fall

Yeah, that wouldn't hurt at all

Not at all

While this

Woman is sleeping here

I tell her what I can't

If I were to wake her

Powerful, but hardly will she ever hear the

Secrets that I've saved up

And we are famous indeed

For all the shyness

Ain't that sweet?

Ain't that a fine mess?

We're in so deep

We let go of the process

And just let things be easy

And be an honest boy, you've made me

Because the solace that you gave me

Was proven

Problems ain't the main thing to fall upon

The archer's sloping shoulders

Any story's tale is tall, and thus

Reminding live is allegorical

I mean the goal here after all

Is not to hurt

(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)

(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na)

Happy Birthday
