Shepherd's Wife

I love imagining
All of the places
We could
Let a child grow
But it’s not in
My nature
To share
These wild thoughts with you
Aren’t you scared
Of domestic life?
Were you born to be a star
Or the shepherd’s wife?
Will you settle for less
Rather than more?
With my perverted sense of values
It’s making it hard to keep score
I love imagining
All of these places
We could
Make it on our own
But it’s not in
My nature
To share
Those wild thoughts with you
Aren’t you scared
Of any empty home?
Were you born to be a star
Or die alone?
Will you settle for less
Rather than more?
With my perverted sense of values
It’s making it hard to keep score
