Baby Steps Love, Baby Steps.


Dolly Parton sings "From Here to the Moon and Back"

I sometimes want a love like that.

One where we hold each other down

When the other ain't around

 

Someone who will ride for me

Die for me, love me til the end

No bullshit just me and my best friend

 

Step by step, 2 by 2

We'll hold each others hand and

See the light that shines through

 

With morning breath and all the you are

If you love me for me, I won't ever be to far

From you to call me each day, or love me

Without a doubt that our love will never fade away

 

This may be corny like white on rice

But oh how nice it'll be to be married to you

And not the past.

Our future burns brighter than stars of the night

And i can tell my mother that she was wrong

she says its a matter of time, but we’ll

be long gone

in a life full of bliss

our little family filled with joy, and happiness

 

If love had a name

yours would ring true

the gold on my left hand

with diamonds all around

shows that passions i was shown

when i was found

 

found by you, so dont ever stray

please ride for me, die for me

thats all I’ll ever ask

and just one last task i need you to complete

and make my life whole

and take this marriage thing week by week.
