I sing it here on You Tube
A Practical Love Song (I♥u because you're here)
Whoever said love's a bed of roses, must have had his nose cut off
We've smelled each other's horrendous farts, so nasty that we gagged and coughed
Some times head turning bodily odors, can often make one's head start to spin
And I oughta put a hazardous contamination sign, in the bathroom after I've been in
We've both gotten older, we've both gotten fatter since we met a dozen years ago
We've learned each others deepest, darkest secrets, some that we'd rather not have known
I've seen you after you had your colonoscopy, you sure weren't a pleasant sight
Most nights the best thought 'bout making love, is just a sleeping straight through the night
I know I've never been confused with movie stars, my gut's hanging over my belt
I'm no Don Juan, Johhny Depp or Brad Pitt, who's gonna make all the ladies ♥s melts
Sometimes growing old isn't so plain romantic, as we move toward impending death
No matter how much gum or mouthwash is applied, there's nothing quite like morning breath
I've got to admit, my eyes and heart have roamed, we've both checked to see what's around
The grass is always greener til you're stepping on it, but at some point it's gonna turn brown
I know sometimes it seems like a life sentence, and we're thinking is this all there is
As the car and the house keep falling apart, the dog just soaked the carpet with piss
But I ♥ you because you're here babe, because you're here and you're all I know
After 12 long years, we're still together - even if it's cus there nowhere else to go
The passion and romance are long gone ghosts, but you'll always have a place in my heart
I meant it at the county administration center when I said til death do us part
Maybe I just keep a pissing you off, since my car's such a big fucking mess
Maybe I'm not the handiest guy, the bathroom floor is uglier than death
Maybe my life in the bedroom with you's not the porn movie I'd like it to be
But you're always around, when I really need you - I thank you for not leaving me
In a world where most couples stick around for a while, just to chase yet another high
To search and chase for an impossible dream, a couple's life is born just to die
Where brainless pretty boys in cowboy hats fills the radio with cheesy love songs
We may keep on wanting what we can't ever have, but our friendship's still going strong
I love you even though you don't look perfect, you're still beautiful to me
I know from here we're just heading further down hill, but your image is what I long to see
I've lived life alone and it's just plain lonely, my remaining days they may be few
You make me laugh, sometimes so hard I cry, you know I'd love to spend the rest with you
No matter how much the fantasy lies waiting, of the thrill of new love with another
I've always known you were the one to spend my life with, there really is no other
I'll stick with you through thick and thin, even after you almost poisoned the cat
You're in the house, every time I come home, and I couldn't ask for more than that
