Dear cousin,

I got your letter

It was more than i thought i deserved

Well she sounds perfect, all i dream of

And i dream about so much it is absurd

But when i get there and she sees me

I'll be impressed if she does not run screaming



My kind of love is an ugly love

But it's real and it lasts a long, long time



I had a thought while i was sleeping

And i dreamed about a place for us to rest

Eternity under the old oak tree

But i go too far i guess

Maybe i'll think about tomorrow

And maybe i can get her to stay that long



'cause my kind of love is an ugly love

But it's real and it lasts a long, long time



And if she finds me so repulsive

She wouldn't be the first to wretch

Well i decided one day long ago

I was never gonna be the greatest catch

And if she cares about the car i drive

Then she can get in hers

The moment i arrive



'cause my kind of love is an ugly love

But it's real and it lasts a long, long time
