Still

I used to be so goddamn jaded
and cynical
that I'd never think anyone with half a heart
would fall in love with someone
as careless as me
but you came along
and made me laugh
which is a pretty easy thing to do
but you made me laugh so hard that first date
that I actually believed that maybe, must maybe,
I could be happy
so now instead of burning my bra
like any liberated woman should do
I buy lingerie because I've finally seen the light
Victoria has shown me her Secrets
and I listen to Jim Brickman songs
About Destiny and giving yourself to someone
when I should be in angry rocker-chick mode
but I'm not anymore
Because I'm happy
so happy that I actually take bubble baths
and wear perfume for you
and I drink Spumante
God I miss Tequila
But I don't miss the creeps at bars
or the lowlifes at clubs
Because I stay at home with you
and cuddle
And it's okay
Because I'm still a woman
Even if I am in love.
