I love the smell of you in the morning
I love the taste of you in the night
I love the sound of you in the evening
telling me everything will be all right
So darling leave
or don't go
stay with me
or just say no.
Because if I make you feel gritty
then you make me feel pretty.
Won't you take this ring
and move with me
far from the city.
Those other girls couldn't hold a candle to you
it would burn out right before their eyes.
Though other men have belonged to you,
I will sleep just fine knowing now you're all mine.
We all know that we're gonna have to die sometime
and I'll cry and grieve if ever it is yours
but if you smile at me with those big, brown eyes one more time
I will make sure that you stick around forever and maybe a little more.
