Oh My Dear
[Verse 1]
I remember you catching my eye
I remember you baking a pie on that first day
And I was the type to hesitate
Lucky for me, you were the type to wait
And my curiosity finally grew
Enough for me to man up and make a move
I’m so glad that I met you, dear
I’m so glad that I started chasing you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Not down here to tie my shoes
Oh, I'm here 'cause I got love to prove

[Chorus]
Oh, my dear, when we’re old and gray
I’d like if all our memories were the same
I’d like if you and I shared everyday
Oh, my dear, I need you to know
The more that I’m with you the more my love grows
Oh, the more I’m loving you
The more that I want to

[Verse 2]
Every chase has a novelty phase that dies
And the doubts are bound to arise
Had a wise man pull me aside
And tell me, "Boy, you best not be wasting her time"
He said, "This is not something you just fall into
The truest love is a love that you choose"
And oh, my dear, I am here to say I’m choosing you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Not down here to say my prayers
Oh, I'm here to promise I’ll be there

[Chorus]
Oh, my dear, when we’re old and gray
I’d like if all our memories were the same
I’d like if you and I shared everyday
Oh, my dear, I need you to know
The more that I’m with you the more my love grows
Oh, the more I’m loving you
The more that I want to

[Outro]
I want to give my love a little clarity
Oh, want to give some color to your left hand dreams
I’m here to give a carat that’s within your reach
And I hope I’m the right cut of a man
'Cause since I met you that is all I’ve wanted to be
So please forgive me all the silly figures of speech
Oh what I’m asking, what I’m asking dear...
