You're Everything & More

You warm me up on wet Wednesday nights

You’re my half time cup o’Bovril

You excite me by faux candlelight

Sticky page of a Mills & Boon novel

Dependable but a pure delight

Like a through ball from Glenn Hoddle

 

Let me be entertained as I try to explain

…You’re everything and more

 

You bring me comfort and cure my hunger

Like a pan of ‘tater ash

Still turn my head in wonder

Like Daryl Hannah did in Splash

You can clear my world of thunder

And lightning in a flash

 

You ease my pain, radiate through rain

A sunrise over gentle shores

 

You’re my Rock N Roll

My Northern Soul

You’re every song that I sing

 

You’re my waterfall

My wonderwall

My first, my last

My everything

 

You’re the beat keeps my rhythm

I’m John and Paul to your Ringo

My antidote to being heathen

Cos you help me learn the lingo

You give my life a reason

Like pensioners have bingo

 

My Kelly’s Eye, my all-time high

You’re everything and more

 

As considerate as a person can be

You’d pull lions from lions paws

Orderly so everything is handy

You are my bottom drawer

I obey when you command me

Because your love is the law

 

It’ll to and fro, but what you say goes

Cos you’re everything and more

 

A confidante who’ll listen

You’re my Lois Lane

You numb my minds affliction

You’re my novocaine

My heart, my souls addiction

More potent than cocaine

 

I love you more each day, every possible way

Every breath, every inch, every pore

 

You tantalise my senses

Heighten all my feelings

Galvanise my defences

Help to keep me breathing

My new dawn without pretences…

Cos we’re something I believe in…

 

My heart implodes for my Yorkshire rose

You’re my everything and more

 

We’ve rode the bumps, absorbed the knocks

There is nothing about you I would alter

In stormy seas you are my rock

You are my Gibraltar

And if I could return to the starting block

I’d still meet you at the altar

 

So I cherish the day, 20th May…

…Cos you’re everything and more
