No Need For Extravagance

No Need For Extravagance

I don’t need fine china
Nor need fine cutlery
A simple picnic basket
Finger food by the sea

No need for silverware
Or any silver platter
Just bring along yourself
You and your heart do matter

No need for false pretense
Forget all that finery
Who needs that anyway
When you lay next to me

No need to be extravagant
Don’t bring false charm to me
Just loving words from you
Or a heart that cares for me

To feel the waves drift over
Me you and finger food
I know your words do tempt me
You bring out my loving mood

All it takes is heart and words
Again we would find ecstasy
Even if you forget the food
Just come lay next to me
