I should ink my skin with your name...





...Take my passport out again,
And just replace it.
See, I could do without a tan,
On my left hand,
Where my fourth finger meets my knuckle





And I should run you a hot bath,
Fill it up with bubbles.





'Cause maybe you're loveable,
And maybe you're my snowflake,
When your eyes turn from green to grey
In the winter, I'll hold you in a cold place




And you should never cut your hair,
'Cause I love the way you flick it off your shoulder,
And you will never know
Just how beautiful you are to me




But maybe I'm just in love
When you wake me up.




And would you ever feel guilty
If you did the same to me?
Would you make me a cup of tea,
To open my eyes in the right way?




And I know you love Shrek,
'Cause we've watched it twelve times
But maybe you're hoping for a fairy-tale too...




And I've always been shit at computer games, and your brother always beats me,
And if I lost, I'd go across, and chuck all the controllers at the TV,
And then you'd laugh at me
And be asking me, if I'm gonna be home next week




And then you'd lie with me,
Until I fall asleep,
And flutter an eyelash on my cheek
Between the sheets.





And you will never know
Just how beautiful you are to me




But maybe I'm just in love
When you wake me up




And I think you hate the smell of smoke,
You always try and get me to stop,
But you drink as much as me,
And I get drunk a lot.
So I take you to the beach,
And walk along the sand




And I'll make you a heart pendant,
With a pebble in my hand
And I'll carve it like a necklace,
So the heart falls where your chest is,
And now a piece of me, is a piece of the beach
And it falls just where it needs to be, and rests,
Peacefully,
And you just need to breathe,
To feel my heart against yours now, against yours now

But maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up,
Well, maybe I fell in love when you woke me up.











Possibly the most gorgeous love song ever written?

Love, Lush bath bombs and strawberry tea xxx

Caroline, I loved getting a comment from you on my blog! I was so excited, haha. Just wanted to comment on this post and say this post was inspiring! So wonderful that you got this dream job and can you share the link to the wedding inspiration blog you'll be posting on when it's up and running. I love the fact that sparklesandcrumbs was the thing that saved the day in the end...there is something so profound about that somehow! xoxo victoria
