25 to Life

Some people say that love is a prison
 You're locked up whenever you're in it
 Well, I don't buy it
 And anyway, if being locked just meant waking up next to you every day
 Well, I wouldn't mind it
 In a world of nightmares, you are sweet, sweet dreams
 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 twenty-five 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 lifetime 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?
 Tell me, baby, will you be mine?
 Oh girl, won't you tell me you be mine for twenty-five to life?
