I'll Behave                                                    

by sloanranger

I won't stare at you while you sleep

and won't fall in love too deep.

I won't watch you shave,

you know I'll behave,

sit quietly here, at your feet.

I won't look at other men,

(well, maybe a bit now and then),

You know I'll behave,

I'll be there each day

and each night to tuck us in.

I shan't bother you while you write,

I shall cook the foods that you like;

make you nice dinners,

change ink in your printer,

my love, will that be all right?

I shall love everyone that loves you,

and be very nice to them, too.

Do nothing that rankles,

sit by your ankles,

apply lotion, then polish your shoes.

When you open your eyes each day,

you'll see an adoring gaze.

I promise you this,

near-perfect bliss,

as I said my love, I'll behave.

Know that I won't be your slave

but consider this anyway:

I shan't ever stray,

and I'll mis-behave,

(only for you, if you say).
