lyrics

The days grow shorter
But you're still here
And there's something about you
That I just can't quite Ignore
Let's keep it simple
You're the only girl in this room
And you've got my
Undivided attention
What are you waiting for?

I can't keep my eyes off of you
You know you're god damn beautiful
I'd be a fool to let you walk yourself home

You call it tongue in cheek
But I think it's something like
The back of the movies
When you're cuddled up next to me
You think I'm short and sweet
Well honey you're in for a nice surprise
When you find out what you mean to me

We were immature and insecure
But we made it out of there
Still going strong
I haven't seen you bat an eye
Show me what it's like
I wanna take you
Deep into the moonlit night
When you walk my way
I've gotta say it

I can't keep my eyes off of you
You know you're god damn beautiful
I'd be a fool to let you walk yourself home

You call it tongue in cheek
But I think it's something like
The back of the movies
When you're cuddled up next to me
You think I'm short and sweet
Well honey you're in for a nice surprise
When you find out what you mean to me

You call it tongue in cheek

You're tasting so damn sweet
And I've got nowhere to be
So let's make this set in stone
I'm on the edge of my seat
And I'm no good alone
You deserve everything

You call it tongue in cheek
But I think it's something like
The back of the movies
When you're cuddled up next to me
You think I'm short and sweet
Well honey you're in for a nice surprise
When you find out what you mean to me

You call it tongue in cheek
But I think it's something like
The back of the movies
When you're cuddled up next to me
You think I'm short and sweet
Well honey you're in for a nice surprise
When you find out what you mean to me
