lyrics

I reckon true love’s my destiny
There’s someone like you meant just for me
Not just any old flame, no Boy Scout fires
My sights are set a whole lot higher
Move over Disney, make room for me

My favorite flavor of fairy tale
Aint’ champagne it’s ginger ale
Buying in bulk that’s the bomb
Sensible choices turn me on
Honey let’s go see what’s on sale

I wanna dance with you until the break of 9 o’clock
I wanna kiss you for a little while then we’ll stop
You make my life pretty good I guess
You’re my status quo more or less
And you’re most of what I’ve been dreaming of
So let’s never throw out this perfectly good enough love

Everybody wants the best seats in the house
We don’t even need to leave the couch
Snuggle up and watch the Grammys
I love how you fill those flannel jammies
Don’t let me forget to put the recycling out

You really sweep me off my feet
You know I mean occasionally
Every time one of us cleans the toilet
It fells like we’re Romeo and Joilet
