like a cello

i put my passport away

'cause i found a reason to stay

i could tell you how much i like you

instead i just wanna say

i like the wrinkles on your elbow

it's like an angry swell of the sea

i like the shape of your no-no-no-nose

your body smells of fresh laundry

but most of all i like your strong ol' arms

they hold me tight like a pillow

they don't mind that i cry too much

you soothe my soul like a cello

like a cello

i've traveled the world to find words that are clever

to tell you what i'm feeling

but the world is full of poets and they're much smarter

so i just say my lines faster

here we go!

i like the way you look at me like i'm as sexy as rihanna

i like the way you think that i'm as boss as mrs. obama or mother teresa

you love to hear me sing like i'm better than ella or aretha

and i don't care if it's true or not

babaribirubiribiribiri

most of all i like your strong arms

they hold me tight like a pillow

they don't mind that i cry too much

you soothe my soul like a cello

so used to running away from all my trouble

and i struggle 'cause i'm addicted to you

most of all i like your tender kisses

you taste me like marshmallows

you don't mind that i laugh too loud

you soothe my soul like a

soothe my soul like a

soothe my soul like a cello

like a cello
