A Love Song specific to you and your spouse (or significant other, may it be human or in any other form 🙂 ). Thanks, Di, for this wonderful prompt. Please check out her blog Pensitivity101

Well, I don’t know if this is about a significant other, but we always had songs we associated with our pets. This one was for my daughter’s cat, Gretchen. She lived with us for many years, and was such a character. She loved my husband better than anybody.

At night he would go into the bedroom to read and close the door. Gretchen would go to the door in the hallway, and scratch three times. He would open the door and she’d jump on the bed to snuggle with him until lights out. His nickname for her was Sweetness!

This was every night. She didn’t look kindly to anyone disrupting her routine, either. She’d give us the furry eyeball if we came in on ‘her time’.  Anyway, we always thought this song was her song. ❤

Gretchen was an awesome cat. Sadly, she traveled over the rainbow bridge a few years ago. She was a beautiful Tortoiseshell Cat, and definitely had the Tortie ‘cattitude’. 🙂

Hey girl, whatcha doing down there
Dancing alone every night
While I live right above you?

I can hear your music playing
I can feel your body swaying
One floor below me
You don’t even know me, I love you

Oh, my darling, knock three time
On the ceiling if you want me
Twice on the pipe
If the answer is no

Oh, my sweetness
Means you’ll meet me in the hallway
Oh-oh, twice on the pipe
Means you ain’t gonna show

If you look out your window tonight
Pull in the string with the note
That’s attached to my heart

Read how many times I saw you
How in my silence, I adored you
And only in my dreams did
That wall between us come apart

Oh, my darling, knock three times
On the ceiling if you want me
Mm-mm, twice on the pipe
If the answer is no

Oh, my sweetness
Means you’ll meet me in the hallway
Whoa, twice on the pipe
Means you ain’t gonna show

Whoa, I can hear the music playing
I can feel your body swaying
One floor below me
You don’t even know me, I love you

Oh, my darling, knock three times
On the ceiling if you want me
Whoa, twice on the pipe
If the answer is no
(I love you, I love you, I love you)

Oh, my sweetness
Means you’ll meet me in the hallway
Mm-mm, twice on the pipe (twice on the pipe)
Means you ain’t gonna show…
