Yes, But...

jo

I've got the couch but God I want somebody to sit next to

I've got the house but God I want somebody to live with every day

I've got the job but God I want somebody to come home to at night

I've got the stuff but God I want somebody to share it with

I've got the skills but God I want somebody to grow them with

I've got the love but God I want somebody to give it to

I've got the ideas but God I want somebody to listen to them

I've got the smarts but God I want somebody to teach me more

I've got the energy but God I want somebody to expend it with

I've got the food but God I want somebody to eat with me

I've got the heart but God I want somebody to bind together with

I've got the life but God I want somebody to walk through it with
