VERSE 1

I wanna say I love you, as you know too well
But a story of perfection isn’t easy to tell
You tell me that you know, but do you know how much
That I want to give you romance, happy endings and such
And I’m sick of pretending
That we’re only friends
And so all of this ends here tonight
I’m gonna tell you while the moon up above
Bears witness to the fact that I’m completely in love
With your beautiful green eyes, the smell of your skin
Your perfect soul and all the packaging that it’s in

VERSE 2

I wanna hold you to me and not dare hold you back
I wanna tell you how I think you’re sexy in black
I want to bury my nose in the top of your hair
And find some way to show you just how I really care
And let you embrace me
And look at your face
And savor the taste of your kiss
For as long as you’ll let me, and however far
I wanna lie on our backs and look up at the stars
And ask which one you’re from and how you got here
And whisper other sweet nothings into your ear

CHORUS

I wanna put my arms around you and just hold on tight
And then never ever never let you outta my sight again
And again and again and again
Forever isn’t long enough to not be apart
And so you’ll have to settle for what’s left of my heart
I’m afraid that you’re stuck with me but I won’t let you be sad
Because, long story short, my confession is
I’ve got it bad

VERSE 3

The moment that we met, babe, I instantly knew
That I wanted nothing more than a forever with you
It took a little while before I came around
So sorry, but I had to get my jaw off the ground
It took some rewinding
I wasted some time
I think I was blinded by you
I’m gonna spend our lives together making it good
And I won’t have any doubts unless you think that I should
Because when you’re with me, I know it’s okay
But don’t exhale, I’ve still plenty to say

VERSE 4

If I told you all my reasons, we’d be here all night
But if you wanna hear ‘em, baby, that’s all right
Because I wanna give you what no one ever gave
Your chain’s around my heart and I’m already your slave
You are why I’m existing
No use in resisting
No matter the distance it takes
I love it when you tell me you’re in love with me, too
It makes me wanna hold you close and really mean “I do”
‘Cause I’d do it over and over again
For as long as you can tolerate holding my hand

CHORUS

BRIDGE

And I know there are pages
That down through the ages
Tell stories of loves never known
But you promise you’re with me
Whenever you kiss me
And I know that I’m not alone

CHORUS

OUTRO

I always knew you loved me; it was easy to see
I just thought that you could do so much better than me
You know I love you, and now I know it, too
Because I know that no one could do better than you
