Houseplants

I water your houseplants, put them in the light
Then she calls you over and you spend the night
But when we're in bed you kiss me on the nose
This Christmas my wardrobe is filled with your clothes

You're sleeping with her but with me you just sleep
You use me, do you use me for intimacy?
A tacit agreement that you are not mine
But I'm yours and I'm yours only most of the time
...

You tell me I'm clever, you tell me I'm kind
Just not kind enough that it's special to find
She's clever and kind but she's pretty as well
I'm good for your houseplants, she's good for your health

You're sleeping with her but with me you just sleep
You use me, do you use me for intimacy?
A tacit agreement that you are not mine
But I'm yours and I'm yours 'til the end of my time.
