Grandma sings and plays the piano,
(keep your shoulders back, sit up straight),
little ladies must look and act like little ladies,
(these are things we've heard her state).
Because I think our relationship is extraordinary,
(NAME) Raisin and Dop-a-dee-dee,
he's given me so much throughout my life
and he means the very world to me.
Seriously, I would like us to be in more of a relationship,
I'd like to explore just where this journey ends,
but just in case, just in case that never happens,
I want you to know I'm also happy to be just friends.
But now I?ve finally "grown up",
I have discovered what a parent?s love is truly worth,
because the relationship I have with the pair of you,
it?s precious, in fact, it?s the most precious thing on this earth.
But (NAME), thanks for getting my boyfriend to smoke again,
despite your best efforts, I still got him to quit,
but if I had to sum up our relationship in one line,
brother, (NAME), I think this would be it:
Now, it's been quite hard to spend time with each other,
and that has certainly caused some clouds of gloom,
it would be awkward to have an open relationship,
but I do enjoy those moments in my operating room.
We're so proud of your relationship,
the perfect epitome of a husband and wife,
and if I could not have a marriage like yours,
well, then I'd rather be single for the rest of my life!
Our adversities have only made our relationship stronger,
and where are the doubters who said we?d never last?
And I?m proud we ate MREs and slept on a poncho,
no one can ever take that from us, that?s our past!
It must have been hard for you,
reading those lines each and every day,
and then to come home each night,
and not act out the words in the play.
I really do value our relationship,
I need your love and support to make me complete,
I can't imagine my future without you,
it's a future that I never, ever want to meet.
And that's nearly as far as Boston to New Jersey,
do you remember how you used to drive that every weekend?
That's not the act of someone that "hates" me,
that's more the devotion of a lifelong friend.
You love (PLACE), (PLACE) and (PLACE),
French restaurants and how you love the stage !
But maybe it's time you stopped doing the Can-Can,
maybe it's time to act your age !
Soon after, the prince had to travel to some far off country,
but warm and heartfelt e-mails and letters warmed that land,
and although these two lovers shared a long distance relationship,
there's was obviously nothing physical, you understand.
You see, I aspire to your kind of relationship,
it's one where the mail is always on time,
it's one where you sing and dance in the kitchen,
even when you can't get your words to rhyme.
But now you must learn to cook and keep tidy,
after all, you must at least act the dutiful wife,
but seriously, I wish you only health and happiness,
I hope that together, you share a beautiful life.
Actually, the children have made it easy for us to come together,
and because of them, our relationship has soared,
and I guess we've had some very worthy blessings,
because we did meet in the house of The Lord.
Our relationship is the best I've ever had,
you truly are my soul-mate and the love of my life,
I just wanted to say, "I'm proud of you",
and very proud to be known as your wife.
So I wasn't looking for a relationship,
but like that ship, I didn't account for the winds of fate,
and now I'm just so thankful for those favorable breezes,
because of them, I've finally found my soul-mate.
Soon after, the prince had to travel to some far off country,
but warm and heartfelt e-mails and letters warmed that land,
and although these two lovers shared a long distance relationship,
there's was obviously nothing physical, you understand.
Son, we've always had a close relationship,
that was, until you got married, just a year ago,
and now I've got some thoughts on my mind,
yes, there's a few heartfelts that you should know:
But it took us 17 long years to reconnect,
and in Princeton, we re-found what we?d once lost,
but since then, we?ve suffered a long distance relationship,
but that was the pact we made (and we knew the cost).
