Twice as Nice

[Chorus]
Things take twice as long
Things cost twice as much
But it's your touch that
Makes life twice as nice
'Cause it's your touch that
Makes life twice as nice

[Verse 1]
Wake up in the am, time to get dressed
Am ready for a full plate, I must confess
My lady still dreaming in the comfy of her nest
Probably stayed up late again as I slept
Lest I be behind on a scheduled quest
Into town what awaits, only one way to find out
Let’s, and that means us as in we
You and I as a tandem, a beautiful team
So I try to bring her back to ground lеvel
Low blood pressure and what not
And what thе blood clot she turns into a cling devil
Curled in a blanket, a full case of baskets
The only way to counter is sunshine
An eye drop like medicine, one time
Open up the curtains hallelujah nice day
I can sense a growl fired my way, so I say

[Chorus]
Things take twice as long
Things cost twice as much
But it's your touch that
Makes life twice as nice
'Cause it's your touch that
Makes life twice as nice

[Verse 2]
Are you set to go, take an extra hour
For a shower from head to toe
So, so clean in the bathrobe
Time to pick a wardrobe, gotta coordinate
Pierce on the earlobes
One of a kind, impossible to copy
The same plush mix of futuristic vintage
Brush off the dust, spiffy like mintage
Opens the mirror, simple or lavish
Make-up in progress bar in percentage
I gotta be patient or else, I can risk getting
Stuck on a color wheel spinning like a film reel
Worst case scenario force quit the app yo
Don't wanna let that get into the middle of
Having a blast in the afternoon and be a snub
Don't wanna let this get into the middle of
I can let it go when you show me a little love

[Chorus]
Things take twice as long
Things cost twice as much
But it's your touch that
Makes life twice as nice
'Cause it's your touch that
Makes life twice as nice

[Verse 3]
Forget I said twice, it could've been thrice
The only thing that matters is I'm paying the price
But the prize won is worth more than ever before
An a for an effort, but por favor
Trust that I'm in it for the long haul
Understand I can withstand the onslaught
Of attacks on my character, your own flaws
I can swallow 'em raw like a coleslaw
I'm lost without your expertise, you know
I'm a teenage boy in front of your striptease
Days seem twice as long without you
In a sense that I can't stop thinking about you
I've already written letters flattering my better half
My other half just wants to see you laugh
As for now this poem will suffice
I said twice as nice, 'cause of the sacrifice
