Your smile is a holiday
A seaside one
Cold sea and warm sand
Your smile is a holiday

Your laugh is a barbecue
A lively one
Green and red
Your laugh is a barbecue

Your eyes are a dance recital
An expensive one
Flitting across the stage with grace
Your eyes are a dance recital

Your humor is a t-shirt
A five dollar one
Throw it on when you don't care
Your humor is a t-shirt

Your voice is a painting
A Norman Rockwell one
So true and funny
Your voice is a painting
