For three days a boy tries to win her heart

For three days a girl tests him, unwilling to give him any part

He does his best and doesn't give up

She simply bites the edge of her cup

He won't stop until she says yes

She soon surrenders to his test

Wanted to make him the one

The fun has only yet begun

He gives her the love she hopes that will last

Forcing her to forget her hard scary past

Harder and harder she falls each day

To the point where she has nothing to say

Words cannot describe him at all 

All she knows is that he's amazing and tall

She's glad she gave him that special chance

That amazing boy who makes her heart dance

This perfect boy has slowly mended her heart

One day the two will never be apart

The boy and the girl together are a team

They pick each other up when they are tearing at the seams

His voice soothes her when she is troubled

She wants him all the time, on the double

She cries at the thought of losing him

But the chances of that are very slim

She's a fool for him, anyone can see it

Cupid shot his arrow and she was hit

She looks at herself in the mirror

She stares carefully and sees a glimmer

That glimmer is love for him in her eyes

And when she thinks about him, time flies

It's been a month since he came into her life

But she already knows she wants to be his wife

She hopes that he doesn't give up on her

It's impossible to not think about a future

One with smiles, one with joy

One with a little girl and boy

The road is hard, filled with tears

But baby I'll love you for years and years
