The Unknowns - Will You Still Love Me

My dear, our love has been larger than life
I hope we can make it grow still
Lately it seems you are less than satisfied
But I have not yet had my fill
You say that you're drawn to my hunger for life
These cravings go deeper than that
This question weighing heavy on more than my mind, is
Will you still love me when I'm fat
When I can't button up my pants
Will you forgive my midnight snacks
And love me even when I'm fat
I once was a dancer, light and deft on my feet
But as the years fly by I can't turn down the sweets
In isolation I gained the covid nineteen
I can see in your eyes it's distressing
I cycle on my peloton, extend those donkey kicks
I count the carbs and cut the lard, I'm out of points by 6
No cow, no pig, I'm sick of it, I think I'm gonna crack
My wine, it looks so lonely on the rack
When I was a young girl, I was told to always clean my plate
That worked out swell until I turned about 28
At first I grew buxom, but then I was struck dumb
When a woman told me in all sincerity - you have such a pretty face
For a while, I was defeated, fully under duress
Thinking what is my worth if I can't zip up my wedding dress
But then I realized - I think I still look pretty good - and no one else gets a say
I can still fit the heels from my wedding day
I will still love me when I'm fat
I'll buy elastic waisted pants
I'll stock the fridge with midnight snacks
And look good even when I'm fat
I will still love you when you're fat
We'll share elastic waisted pants
I'll bring the food for midnight snacks
And love each other when we're fat
