Lyrics

My, my, my don?t you look cute
In those two-tone shoes and that three piece suit
Your hands are sweaty
Your hair?s all spiky
And you?re just as crazy as me

I got nothing to hide
I ?ve been through hell
I?m sick of fishing in the wishing well
I like the things you say
Because I know they?re true
And I?m just as crazy as you

(chorus)
So please open your heart
And let me be the one who takes you seriously
Together we?ll start to make a life that?s everything we dreamed it could be
When two of a kind
finally find one another
The feeling is ever so free
Forever is easy to see

(bridge)
And it?s all the same
Whether you?re a boy or girl
You will win the game
When you bring joy to the world
I know you believe this too
That?s why I?m not afraid
To sing to you
This serenade

We?ll run away to Rome
Any time you?re ready
Or just stay home
And have spaghetti
I?ll do your nails you feed me green ice cream
Oh what a wonderful dream

(repeat chorus)
