Joel Ansett - Oh My Dear

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

Not down here to tie my shoes
Oh, I'm here 'cause I got love to prove

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

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

Not down here to say my prayers
Oh, I'm here to promise I'll be there

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

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...
