Story Behind The Song

Love should be expressed exuberantly and with abandon sometimes. This song pulls out all the stops.

Song Description

The singer describes his/her new-found romance using a host of time-worn cliches, which surprisingly, spring to life and provide cute, quirky metaphors for love and freedom, after a long history of past failures.

Lyrics

It´s been a long way from L.A., since I started at first
I've been used and abused and accused of the worst
Now I'm fine 'cuz you're mine, and my new life has begun
There's no ifs, ands, buts or maybes, baby, you're the one

I looked up, I looked down, I looked all around
I looked high, I looked low, I had nowhere else to go
Now I'm made in the shade, having fun in the sun
There's no ifs, ands, buts, or maybes, baby, you're the one

The single life is stressful, sugar, especially on the run
When you're in it to win it you don't have a minute, you're always under the gun
No more discotheque dances or on-line romances, my rambling days are through
You're my honeysuckle baby, there ain't no baby but you

I regret I made bets that were best to forget
They went fast - didn´t last - but they´re a thing of the past
Now I´m free in your arms, you and me, and your charms
There´s no ifs, ands, buts, or maybes, baby, you´re the one!
