No fairytale sweetness

[verse 1] You’re a pain in the ass, no one could deny But you keep the lights on, yeah, you never let me cry Invoices don’t linger, you settle every dime Somehow it’s endearing, you’re so prompt on time [chorus] Oh, dear client, we’re an odd valentine I may drop the ball, but you always pay on time We clash and we dance, yet I hold you so dear Through every hassle, you keep my books clear [verse 2] I know I vanish sometimes, oh I can be late Emails unanswered, ‘cause I’m juggling my plate But you show me patience—though you grumble and sigh Let’s keep this love-hate thing alive [chorus] Oh, dear client, we’re a tangled design You’re a thorn in my side, yet your checks always shine When we collide, frustration in the air But our weird romance still hangs in there [bridge] No fairytale sweetness, no hearts made of gold But we’re in this together, neither one letting go Let’s raise a toast to invoices always paid And to flaky replies that sometimes get delayed [chorus] Oh, dear client, we’re an odd valentine I get on your nerves, you ruffle up mine Still, I’ll sing this song for us, ‘cause baby it’s true In this twisted love story, I’m stuck with you [outro] You’re a pain in the ass, and I know I can be too But our business bond’s strong—here’s a Valentine for you
