Quoted By:
Another day at work is nearly over;
You must've seen the whole thing on T.V.
Seventeen more city blocks and I can almost smell you
Waiting at the windowsill for me.
It's our 41st anniversary,
But we don't look a day over 23.
Not in this life,
Not in this universe.
And we were still in high school when I met you,
If you believe the continuity.
I rescued you from robots and untied you from the tracks,
And you pretended not to know that it was me.
We didn't even kiss until issue 26,
And this world still feels like 1963.
I love this life,
I love this universe.
And you'll keep my identity a secret,
And you will know the touch beneath my glove,
And I may go out every night and risk my life for strangers,
But you're the only girl I'll ever love.
And Gwen Stacy isn't dead, she's only sleeping,
And Elektra isn't evil or insane,
And those bastards in the Pentagon can't really kill Sue Dibny
No more than they could kill off Lois Lane.
And I swear to god there'll be hell to pay
If anybody tries to take you away.
Forget this life,
Forget this universe,
You're everything I need.
You are my life,
You are my universe,
And they'll have to go through me.
