  • Baby, last night was hands down
    One of the best nights
    That I've had, no doubt
    Between the bottle of wine
    And the look in your eyes and the Marvin Gaye
    Then we danced in the dark under September stars in the pourin' rain

    And I know that I can't ever tell you enough
    That all I need in this life is your crazy love
    If I never get to see the Northern Lights
    Or if I never get to see the Eiffel Tower at night
    Oh, if all I got is your hand in my hand
    Baby, I could die a happy man
    A happy man, baby, mmm

    Baby, that red dress brings me to my knees
    Oh, but that black dress makes it hard to breathe
    You're a saint, you're a goddess, the cutest, the hottest, a masterpiece
    It's too good to be true, nothing better than you
    In my wildest dreams

    And I know that I can't ever tell you enough
    That all I need in this life is your crazy love
    If I never get to see the Northern Lights
    Or if I never get to see the Eiffel Tower at night
    Oh, if all I got is your hand in my hand
    Baby, I could die a happy man, yeah, yeah, mmm

    I don't need no vacation, no fancy destination
    Baby, you're my great escape
    We could stay at home, listen to the radio
    Dance around the fireplace

    Oh, if I never get to build my mansion in Georgia
    Or drive a sports car up the coast of California
    Oh, if all I got is your hand in my hand
    Baby, I could die a happy man

    Baby, I could die a happy man
    Oh, I could die a happy man
    You know I could, girl
    I could die, I could die a happy man
