this song i wrote in 2021 for my friends gabby and walter, who are now engaged. gabby helped write the words and gifted it to walter for xmas. young love!!!!

lyrics

started a fire
in his dorm room
trying to make me brownies
he started a fire

cooks with too much heat
or i don't cook with enough
still that night he started a fire
he started a fire in us

he makes the coffee
i make the bed
when he wants to make me happy
he'll make it, instead

it gets too hot
in this house of ours
still you'll share a blanket with me
[and when it's cold
we'll light a match
you the candle, i the wax] x2

just one sleeping bag
for two to sleep under
still there's a thousand stars
to fill us, with wonder

it gets too hot
in this house of ours
still you'll share a blanket with me
[and when it's cold
we'll light a match
you the candle, i the wax] x2

when we're old
i hope you're there
wearing your same wrinkled shirts
when we're old
i hope you're there
you and i, and our dog
and the whole wide earth
