lyrics

I live up on the seventh floor
You work down on the street
I press my face to the window
And see all the people that you meet
I love you and you know it's a fact
Cause you're scheduled here in my love almanac

You stand so self-confident
I need a woman like you
I pretend that you're in my living room
And I set out a homemade dinner for two
I love you and the hat on your head
Can you picture both of us happily wed

If I could have your love, I'd gladly rip off my arm
For just a little kiss, I'd give anything
You don't need to worry
If you give it I will take your pain
And glory in the thought that you don't hold me in disdain

I look at the stars in the sky
And I wonder if you're looking too
I pick the one that I like the best
And imagine I'm giving it to you
I love you and you know it's a fact
According to the notes in my love almanac

You don't need to worry
Cause this book predicts my word is true
And that I'll show what pervades and connects me into you

You don't owe me your rugs and jewelry
You can keep all your drugs and candy
All I ask of you is your understanding
You don't owe me an explanation
Don't pledge me your love forever
All I want from you is this time together
