Some people say that love is a prison
You're locked up whenever you're in it
Well, I don't buy it
And anyway, if being locked just meant waking up next to you every day
Well, I wouldn't mind it
In a world of nightmares, you are sweet, sweet dreams
Just about the prettiest thing that I've ever seen
I've been waiting so long for a girl like you to come by
Tell me, baby, will you be mine for twenty-five to life?
If I was accused of digging you
Loving every little thing you do
Well, I couldn't deny it
And if they wanted to sentence me to a lifetime of loving you tenderly
Well, I'd be delighted
In a lifelong winter time, you're the first day of spring
Just about the prettiest thing that I've ever seen
I've been waiting so long for a girl like you to come by
Tell me, baby, will you be mine?
Tell me, baby, will you be mine?
Oh girl, won't you tell me you be mine for twenty-five to life?
Twenty-five to life
