Lyrics
Well, every morning I wake up to see
Bob Marley's painting, smiling at me
He used to watch my girl as she'd rise
And when we made love, he'd close his eyes
But now we're moving into a new space
And my girl says, "Bob, find a new place"
Oh, the compromises I make for love
Hanging Bob in the basement, it's a shove
But I know his spirit will never fade
In our hearts, his music is played
So down in the basement, Bob will reside
While upstairs, love's flames still abide
He won't witness our morning dance
But in our hearts, he'll still have a chance
My girl says, "Honey, it's just a painting, dear"
But I know Bob's presence brings good cheer
So I smile and nod, make the sacrifice
Knowing Bob's spirit will suffice
Oh, the compromises I make for love
Hanging Bob in the basement, it's a shove
But I know his spirit will never fade
In our hearts, his music is played
So when the nights get long and the days get tough
I'll sneak down to Bob, that old reggae bluff
We'll share a laugh, maybe a toke or two
And I'll know, love, we've made it through
So here's to love and all its quirks
Even if it means Bob's in the dark
In our hearts, his light will shine
Dancing forever to his reggae rhyme.
He won't witness our morning dance
But in our hearts, he'll still have a chance
But I know his spirit will never fade
In our hearts, his music is played
So when nights get long and days are rough,
Down to Bob's basement, I'll sneak, that's enough.
We'll share a laugh, maybe a toke or two
Bob and me chilling, just us two.
Here's to love, its twists and quirks,
Bob's in the basement, where he perks.
In our hearts, his light does gleam,
Dancing forever to his reggae dream.
