Life's Like Poetry

Life's like poetry but in my poem bay
until now there's always been a missing line.

Life's too short to hide the good thing you feel
And I find the morning after the best time to determine if it's real
Baby finding you gave my whole life reason and rhyme
But life's like poetry and in my poem bay
Until now there's always been a missing line.

Life's too short to think about right or wrong
And the only thing I wonder bout is where you've been so long
Baby finding you gave my whole life reason and rhyme
But life's like poetry and in my poem bay
Until now there's always been a missing line.

Life's like poetry but in my poem bay
Until now there's always been a missing line.

Life's like poetry and in my poem bay
Until now there's always been a missing line...
