lyrics

Searching for the remote, the words were sticking in my throat. You know I was only teasing when I said you weren't the one for me. Realistically I know that you and me may disagree about what to watch on TV though we'll compromise eventually and when I'm in a mood and I'm spouting crazy views, I see you're listening eagerly waiting to disagree with me.
I love the way you don't listen to everything I say. 
I love the way you don't let me take myself too seriously. 
Well I know you got the arse when I mentioned Myleene Klass, you know she means nothing to me, she's just an image on TV and if she did approach me and seductively suggest, that her and I should run away I'd say no thank you not today, because I want to stay and be here with my baby, you see, though secretly she likes Jack Dee, given the chance I think she'd stay with me.
I love the way you don't listen to everything I say 
I love the way you don't let me take myself too seriously. 
Though our feelings grow, there will be times when we're both low and if I see you cry I'll do my very best to make you smile and if my jokes don't work, if they only make things worse, I won't give up I'll persevere to wipe away those soggy tears. Maybe I'll do that dance, yeah the one that makes you laugh, you could then join in, put on a stupid voice and singalong. 
I love the way you don't listen to everything I say.
I love the way you don't let me take myself too seriously. 
If I should leave the toilet seat up, could you still believe that this could be love.
