Listen to Lithium by Nirvana

On the rocks
Just ice
And perhaps a twist of lemon
Pour it right
And it might be
Just like kissing heaven
Draw a bath
Submerge
Let your troubles soak away
Listen to my soothing tone
And celebrate the day

Celebrate the way you make the world a better place to be
Simply by existing
With such dignity and gracefully
Live your life declining that a moment go to waste you see
My dearest
You need never ever change for me

One word in kind
And my heart skips two beats
Yet never one time does it picture defeat
Would drop to my knees
Just to kiss your bare feet
Amidst dandelions in bloom

I found it in you
The one secret I kept
That one thing true blue
Shed of every dream dreamt

Divine is the kingdom
Of all that is you
Sublime is your vision
Exalted your truth
Each dawn new delighted
Reminds me of you
Each skyline we climb
Redesigned in true blue

In your fine name
I am wild
I am brave
You are the coulis that cascades my veins
Yours is the kool aid
On midsummer days
Refreshing the blessèd terrain

One word in kind
And my heart skips two beats
Yet never one time does it picture defeat
Would drop to my knees
Just to kiss your bare feet
Amidst dandelions in bloom

I found it in you
The one secret I kept
That one thing true blue
Shed of every dream dreamt
Adventures untold
Each to have and behold
A measureless garden where wild flowers grow

I bask in your light
And revise in your shade
Learning fresh ways
To ignite in your flame
Ours is eternity
Twined into braid
Just as has forever been our way

This love of ours is stunning
And our smile lines most becoming
As we run the race with grace
Embrace the mystic river running
Through two hearts which beat with purpose
For a love so deep and certain
That we need not eyes to prize divine sight
Peek beneath the curtain

One word in kind
And my heart skips two beats
Yet never one time does it picture defeat
Would drop to my knees
Just to kiss your bare feet
Amidst dandelions in bloom

I found it in you
The one secret I kept
That one thing true blue
Shed of every dream dreamt
Adventures untold
Each to have and behold
A measureless garden where wild flowers grow

I bask in your light
And revise in your shade
Learning fresh ways
To ignite in your flame
Ours is eternity
Twined into braid
Just as has forever been our way
