Takin' Care of Me

I know that at times I'm ill,
But you find it in your heart to take care of me still.
I know that at times I probably seem sad,
But that doesn't keep you from making me glad.

I know that at times I feel simply tired,
But that doesn't make you tell me "As a husband, you're fired."
I know that at times I'm simply a grump,
But you don't strap me to the roof of the car and drive me to the dump.

I know that at times I tend to be quiet,
But that doesn't make you start a riot.
I know that at times I can be a pain,
But that doesn't make you any less sane.

I know that at times I'm simply a bore,
But you don't see me as an onerous chore.
And I know that at times I try to be perfect,
And when I'm not, you know I mean no disrespect.
