Waking up with you in twenty-twenty three
Times have come and gone when we have only longed
Kept apart but connected always felt like we belonged
In each other’s arms sharing what may be for all eternity
Starting now, waking up with you in twenty-twenty three
Been across mountains, flown south over deep blue seas
On a hot windy island, hiked up a bluff in snow to my knees
Saw all kinds of beauty, but there’s nothing that could ever be
Any better than waking up with you in twenty-twenty three
No there ain’t nothing this man could ever desire
Come close to how my pretty little lady flat lights my fire
Takes my caged worries and doubts and sets them free
Honey ain’t nothing better than waking up next to you
Keep that winning lotto ticket, nope that won’t do
Cause I said babe ain’t nothing even close to waking up next to you in twenty-twenty three
