Babe I'm lost
Cause I don't know what to say
Hmmm I love you
Want to make you my wife someday
Dont wanna steal you
Of a young womans light
To me it's perfect
Just wanna do you right
And I've known others
And I've loved others too
But I loved them cause they were stepping stones
On a staircase to you
Sometimes I act foolish
I don't know what to do
Please babe try not to judge me
For my offering is true
And I dream of children
We can call our own
Watch 'em run around in the front yard
From the front porch of our home
