Lyrics:
I’ve got this big question that needs asking
The kind with bended knees and bands of gold
But before you answer I should mention
There’s some things about me you should know

This brain will forget names and a few birthdays
These two left feet don’t fit no dancing shoes
This hair is turning grey a little early
This belly has some pounds it needs to lose

I hope despite all of this
And all the things I might have missed
You’ll make this man the happiest alive
You know I’m yours - will you be mine?

This tongue still has the tastebuds of an infant
This pale skin is as white as a sheet
This body forgot how to ride a bicycle
This ego gets real bruised in a defeat

I hope despite all of this
And all the things I might have missed
You’ll make this man the happiest alive
You know I’m yours - will you be mine?

I can’t say I won’t hurt you accidentally
I can’t say I won’t ever make you cry
Hopefully a smile will be more commonplace
I promise, at the very least I’ll try

I hope despite all of this
And all the things I might have missed
You’ll make this man the happiest alive
I hope despite all of this
And all the things I might have missed
You’ll make this man the happiest alive
You know I’m yours - will you be
Will you be mine?
