    All That Is Left

    All that is left of our love,
    Ten years from the day we first said hello,
    Is a Thomas Kincaid plaque of Paris
    In my second bathroom (I don't go into it very often)
    Which you gave me before you knew
    That I really don't like Thomas Kincaid stuff all that much,
    But which I enthusiastically accepted
    Because I love Paris and I loved you at the time.

    Now all that is left of our love,
    Ten years after we first said hello,
    Is the Paris plaque in my second bathroom
    Even though I really don't like
    Thomas Kincaid stuff all that much,
    I still love Paris.

    You are gone, and the plaque,
    Ten years after we said hello,
    Is all that is left of our love.
