Because nothing says I love you like reminding your partner of his shortcomings.
"My Funny Valentine" (from the musical "Babes in Arms")
"Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you're my favorite work of art"
Billy Joel, "Just the Way You Are"
"I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are"
