Romance Cottage, Calif.–10:33 p.m., Pamper-Her-Friday:
____________________________________________________________________
What we have is strong and tender . . . hold on
I’m feeling Sade at Christmastime
If God perched you atop the highest mountain
I swear, woman, I’m ready to climb
I’ve got my gifts-satchel slung over my shoulder
The snowfall is trying to discourage me,
My prayer to the heavens: ‘I just want to hold her’
A higher romance this must be
This journey to you I’ll see it through
My jagged edges are like the mountain’s side,
Only you can smooth my ridges, true
I need a woman in whom I can confide
My deepest Christmas wishes are far from material
Neither of us can purchase what we feel,
Groupon? No; Burberry? No; Amazon? No . . .
I’m in need of something mo’ betta, mo’ real
Like, I’ll be the tree, you be the ornaments
We’ll both be the precious water at the base,
Let’s get this love temperature just right
Not one gumdrop of romance will we waste
You see, so very many are going without
at this most philanthropic time of year,
But I’ve got my priorities in order
Having you in my arms is what I hold dear
Have you ever heard of sledding uphill?
It’s an endeavor of a man out of his mind,
Call me crazy, insane may be even more apt
But I consider you the ultimate find
Can I unwrap you, girl? Can I clap for you, girl
like a standing ovation at a holiday play?
You’re the grantor and I the grantee
My lone gift wish come true, as we lay
By the log fire I’m in need of the entire
embodiment of romance in your eyes,
I’m nearing the peak of the mountain
And I’m shedding the St. Nicholas disguise
I’ve weathered the storm; can I keep you warm
My winter cottage awaits us–what do you say?
It’s the 20th day of Christmas, Love
I’m a little early . . . because it’s Pamper-Her-Friday.
