[verse 1]

Flashback to 5 in the morning watching you've got mail

You were at your house but it felt like you were right there

I knew at that moment there was a lot of life to share

Cause when the elevator to my heart didn't work, you took the stairs

I love clothing you in laughter

I love your scent, it's like peppermint mixed with lavender

You make me nervous, you make my heart beat faster

I knew I had to have you when you said you don't like rap ugh

That means you keep words clothed in honesty

You supported me when I wanted to give up on comedy

And start chasing the music like I'd be the next rap prodigy

Even though they haven't heard of me, you're still here, saying you're proud of me

How did I get you, knew you back in Sunday school

Back when we were four and I thought I was super cool

And I thought you were cute, but I never had a chance

Fell in love twelve years later, at 16 we were holding hands

First date, you asked me if I'd been to this restaurant

I said I had, but that was false, I came clean cause you my confidant

Walked in a giant circle talking of how God moves in our lives

Told you I was a human taser, so you could relax and enjoy the night

Countless times I've ran to the nearest outlet

Or the times you've been there for me when I wake up in a cold sweat

You changed my life, there is no way I could ever forget

I'd pick you every single time, without a hesitation or a regret

I used to stay up real late and all I do is pray

For the girl of my dreams to come and take my breath away

I don't work for NASA, I don't need my space

Come sit by me I'll keep that smile on your face

Aye, found her in church, did not have to search

I fell in love hard, it did not hurt

I was awkward, and she didn't say a word

Don't know how to flirt, but we made that deal

Work

Don't know how to flirt, but we made that deal work

Like

Bang

[hook]

There was a time when the feeling that fell over me was only

A hopeless romantic vibe that had me feeling lonely

Then you came into my life, I found the old me was a phony

And honestly I just needed someone brave enough to hold me

[verse 2]

When I'm with you I'm happy

When I'm away from you I dream of you, when I'm with you I still dream of you

I love you even when you sassy

God was crafty, took a lil boy with acne who was praying so badly for a girl who would make him fall madly

In love like the movies he watched like meeting in a train or getting in the same taxi

Not too shabby

I'll carry all your burden like one heck of a caddy

Your eyes are so much browner than all of my freckles, brown like your hair

Brown like the dirt I came from or ate when I was young and didn't care

Picture this, New Year's Eve night

We did that date right

By eating sundaes in McDonald's as the the new year came by

But I turned on those Christmas lights

As we danced neath the Golden Arches and I swear that we could fly now I'm with you and we never parting

Or take it back to when I saw you in the bus

20-30 people but it felt like it was just us

October 30 I looked like Steve Urkle

I fell in love looking in those eyes we speak loud with non verbals

Or take it back to orange soda and buttered popcorn

VeggieTales on loud covered up a thunderstorm

Butterflies had me flying, I felt I was airborne

My mom used to say those Keener girls are cute but I knew I couldn't am have you in any way shape or form

But you always caught my eye

I bet your legs are tired, cause you've been running through my mind

For like 16 years the perfect love story was redefined

I don't need to watch a Romantic comedy, I'll just live mine

Marathons of Harry Potter

We swim in the living water

You secretly like to make people laugh

You get that from your father

And you get your sweetness from your momma

You love to snuggle, me too, so let's put on our pajamas

I have no idea how a dork like me, gotta a fine sugar like you

What am I supposed to do, just wiggle my way beside you

And I just think bout

[hook]
