The Value of a Face by Alison McKenzieLets just take this at face value
A relationship of convenience,
Arms to shelter one another
Until were strong enough to let go
And move on with life
The way it was meant to be.
And I promise not to
Mourn myself into a grave,
If you promise to
Find a good woman
With whom you can have
Lots of babies
Who will fill your house with
Laughter and a future.
