Some people say that love is a prison And you're locked up Whenever you're in it Well I don't buy it And anyway, if being locked away just meant Waking up next to you everyday Well I wouldn't mind it In a world of nightmares You're a sweet, sweet dream... 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 25 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 life time 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 for 25 to life?
