Oh, yeah
Yeah
Oh, baby girl, last night, hands down
One of the best nights (yeah) that I've had no doubt
Between that bottle of wine and that look in your eyes and the Marvin Gaye (ay)
Well, then we danced in the dark under September stars in the pouring rain
And I know (and I know) that I can't (that I can't)
Ever tell you know enough (uh)
All I need (all I need) in this life (in this life)
Is your crazy love (uh, uh, yeah)
If I never get to see the Northern Lights
If I never get to see the Eiffel Tower at night
Oh, if all I've got is your hand in my hand (ay)
Baby, I can die (I can die) a happy man
Oh, yeah, I could, baby, yeah, yeah, uh, uh (uh)
Die a happy man, baby, yeah, yeah
Oh, baby, that red dress (oh) brings me to my knees
Oh, but that black dress, shawty, makes it hard to breathe
You're a saint, you're a goddess, the cutest, the hottest, a masterpiece (uh)
It's too good to be true, nothing better than you in my wildest dreams (ay)
And I know (and I know) that I can't (that I can't)
Ever tell you know enough (uh)
All I need (all I need) in this life (in this life)
Is your crazy love (uh, uh, yeah)
If I never get to see the Northern Lights
If I never get to see the Eiffel Tower at night
Oh, if all I've got is your hand in my hand (ay)
Baby, I can die (I can die) a happy man
I don't need no vacation, no fancy destination
Baby, you're my great escape, yeah (uh)
And we can stay at home (stay at home), listen to the radio (radio)
Or dance around the fireplace
If I never get to build my mansion in Georgia
Drive a sports car up the coast of California
Oh, if all I've got (yeah) is your hand in my hand (ay)
Baby, I can die (yeah) a happy man (ah)
Oh, if all I've got (yeah) is your hand in my hand (uh)
Baby, I can die (yeah) a happy man
Oh, yeah, I could, baby (hey, uh)
I'd die a happy man, baby (uh), yeah
I could die, I could die a happy man (uh, yeah)
I'd die a happy man, baby (yeah)
