A Custom Love Song Just For Your Wife

It is a Tuesday in the middle of a month with nothing in it. No anniversary, no birthday, nothing owed for anything. You already know her first question, because you would ask it too. What did you do. Is this bad news with a ribbon on it.

The way around that is content. A song full of sweeping declarations reads like an apology. A song about the actual week the two of you are having reads like gratitude, because gratitude is specific. Her coffee order, which has three modifications and has not changed in six years. The school run, and who does the harder half of it. The way she handled the month everything went sideways, which you never properly thanked her for at the time because there was no time.

That is the whole thing. You are not proving anything or making up for anything. You are showing her you have been paying attention to the ordinary parts, which are the parts nobody ever mentions.

You do not need to write it. Send us six plain facts about your life together, the smaller the better, and we build the verses. Six beats one big line, because a song with a single trick in it has nothing left on the second play, and this one has no occasion attached to retire it the next morning. There should be something new to catch the third time through.
