Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
It started way back in third grade I used to sit beside Emmylou Hayes A pink dress, a matching bow, and her ponytail She kissed me on the school bus but told me not to tell Next day I chased her around the playground Cross the monkey bars to the merry-go-round And Emmylou got caught passing me a note Before the teacher took it I read what she wrote Do you love me do you want to be my friend And if you do Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand If you want to I think this is how love goes Check yes or no Now we're grown up and she's my wife Still like two kids with stars in our eyes Not much has changed I still chase Emmylou Up and down the hall around the bed in our room Last night I took her out in a white limousine Twenty years together she still gets to me Can't believe it's been that long ago When we got started with just a little note Do you love me do you want to be my friend And if you do Well then don't be afraid to take me by the hand If you want to I think this is how love goes Check yes or no
