lyrics

In the time it will take to write this song
I will have fallen in love with you
I promise it won't take me long
Maybe just about a minute or two

When I start singing 'bout
All the things that make you "you"
Then I start thinking 'bout
All the wonderful things that you do
And you do

In the time it will take to write this song
I will have fallen in love with you
If you listen and follow along
Maybe you will feel it too

This is the part where I sing
About all the time you've been my friend
So just keep on listening
The payoff will be there in the end
Just for you

In the time it will take to write this song
I will have fallen in love with you
My predilection for affection prolongs
Accumulation of ovation for you

I write all these fancy words
To appear as if I'm witty and smart
The truth is I'm really a fool
Who is wishing you would give me your heart
And you do

In the time it will take to sing this song
I hope you've fallen in love with me
Together we'll never go wrong
You'll be astounded by how happy we'll be

This is the part of the song
Where I repeat the things I told you before
I tell you how great you are
And I end it all with you wanting more
And you do

In the time that it took to sing this song
I think I've fallen in love with you
