Kevin Denney – We Rhyme

WE RHYME

Her name was Madelyn Connors,

And I am the man that she picked

She watched her daddy’s money built their house on the hill

And watched me and my daddy laying every brick

Her dad couldn’t see us together

And the truth is neither did mine

They couldn’t know from the very first time that we kissed

We knew in our hearts we rhyme

We’re not poetry in motion like the ocean’s blue waves

We’re just flashing flood emotion born in red Georgia clay

Her love is a lyric a song with no lines

We know in our hearts we rhyme

The nurse held her up to the window and

I traced her face through the glass

She’s got my love for sleeping And Madelyn’s nose

And I’m already thinking she’ll grow up too fast

I think of the day that’s a coming

When a boy wants this baby of mine

I’m not sure that I’ll like it

But I’ll have to let go,

When she says to me Daddy we rhyme

We’re not poetry in motion like the ocean’s blue waves

We’re just flashing flood emotion born in red Georgia clay

Our love is a lyric a song with no lines

We know in our hearts we rhyme

We know in our hearts we rhyme
