I could be sweet 16 again, dreaming through the day and then
Home to put it down on the strings and the page
And it's all dedicated to you

Such an unexpected move
Well that's love for you
Crazy and drunk


For now I'm a proud and a happy cliche
Don't let the world get in the way


Everyone can see
You know I can't hide a thing

My taste is delectably you
Those big oaken eyes
So dark and mysterious

I look up and they're already gazing at me

Every tender moment we've shared

I replay
Don't let the world get in the way


Sometimes you're so sensible
Fine preserve
Grounded but ready to be knocked off your feet

I'll whisk you away to my bedroom for days
Till we lose track of night and day


Roll into these 2 strong arms and stay
Don't let the world get in the way


Until you're sleeping softly I'll stay awake
I won't let that world get in our wall
