Is That All There Is?

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 On this day thoughts turn to love,
And things that are sent us, from above,
Cupids arrow hits the heart, and from our love we will never part.
Entwined together, conjoined from the start

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Through good times bad times, thick and thinner,
Our love immense, spurs on our defence.
The keeper is dodgy, everyone knows,
but he plays for us, and that is enough.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 There is no wrong that the midfield can commit,
Not even the hapless and angry midget,
They may be estranged from the lads at the front,
but to suggest they get closer would be an affront.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 The stikers try hard and they run all around
With so much effort, we see their hearts pound,
And that, there, is what we love best,
Selfless endeavour, forget all the rest.

Notes

Being condemned to a lifetime supporting Birmingham City, I wonder why we football fans lose all sense of reason when it comes to following our teams.
