Analysis of For You, I Write This Happy Song



What a cool person you are
Yet the Mike's between us are very far
You make me laugh all day long
It's for you I wrote this happy song
You're tall, handsome, droll, & debonair,
For us life's changes just aren't fair
We expect to grow old with our mate
The distance between us is what I hate
On a day like today, I'm thinking of you
Even as I  sit with nothing to do
I'm wondering why you linger on my mind
Still the sentiment I have for you,  I'm not denying
Conceivably one day we'll be together
Just hoping there's not any bad weather
Where there's a will, we all know there's a way
Which is why I wrote this nice song for you today
Sending you many hugs, all my love, & a big kiss
On this Valentine's Day is my wish
