I want to write oceans deep I've gotta sound so sincere I'll surely strike a chord And you'll make your way here I wanna write words that move And make your heart skip beats And if I can't do that At least you'll tap your feet If I were to ask would you be willing To lay right here and watch the ceiling And stay up late with me And then we'd kiss till three And if I should ask would you be happy To learn these words and sing them at me Take my hand and hold And show me what you know I gotta be rational And take my time with this I'm making god damn sure There's not a thing I'll miss I work with a balanced heart And never with steady hands When you're around I can't speak But I know my songs can If I were to ask would you be willing To lay right here and watch the ceiling And stay up late with me And then we'd kiss till three And if I should ask would you be happy To learn these words and sing them at me Take my hand and hold And show me what you know Sleep is for the weak And baby I can stay the weekend As long as you're with me I think maybe we can sleep in If I were to ask would you be willing To lay right here and watch the ceiling And stay up late with me And then we'd kiss till three And if I should ask would you be happy To learn these words and sing them at me Take my hand and hold And show me what you know x2 Oceans deep I've gotta sound so sincere I'll surely strike a chord And you'll make your way here I wanna write words that move And make your heart skip beats And if I can't do that At least you'll tap your feet
