Saw him coming from the upstairs room
his headlights shined like the moon
I smile
He never makes me wait

Twelve roses like the clock reads noon
This Cinderella dances to the tune
oh while
there's no time to waste

So can we just slow down
while you make this mistake
just slow down
so my heart don't break

It's like you're
flying through the sky in a big airliner
looking at me with those dark brown eyes
you say
I'll be forever yours
coming undone and my seams unravel
you know that I love you but my heart won't travel
but I'll still be yours

Sitting in his car and it's two a.m.
he's holding me like this will never end
I try, I try to hide my tears
Quarter to three and he's got to leave
a last goodbye and a kiss on my cheek I
won't forget these years

So can we just slow down
while you make this mistake
just slow down
so my heart don't break

It's like your
flying through the sky in a big airliner
looking at me with those dark brown eyes
you say
I'll be forever yours
coming undone and my seams unravel
you know that I love you but my heart won't travel
but I'll still be yours

The seventeenth came way too soon
now I'm staring at this empty room
he said
I'll be forever yours
