Five Foot Two, Seven Foot Two

Songtekst

[Verse 1] I first saw you laughing by the courthouse door Five foot two, but you shook my whole world I’m seven foot two, yes, I reach the top shelf But beside you, baby, I forget about myself You had a paper cup and a red coat on I had two left feet and my courage gone I said, “Bella, would you take a chance with me?” You said, “Only if you promise to make me coffee” [Pre-Chorus] Now the chapel bells are waiting in the town I’ve got your ring and my best shirt pressed down [Chorus] I’m gonna marry the love of my life My little queen, my beautiful wife You make this tall man’s heart feel brand new Every good thing in me comes back to you You’re five foot two, I’m seven foot two But heaven made the perfect room for two And if happiness has a face I know It looks like you, my bella, my home [Verse 2] Three little miracles came before the bed Right there on the kitchen floor, just like you said The kettle was singing, the old clock stopped You held our babies while the whole world rocked I watched you breathe through every tear and pain Then kiss their tiny hands again and again I never knew a heart could stand so strong You made our family, and you carried us along [Pre-Chorus] I saw the sunrise resting in your eyes And thanked the Lord for you a thousand times [Chorus] I’m gonna marry the love of my life My little queen, my beautiful wife You make this tall man’s heart feel brand new Every good thing in me comes back to you You’re five foot two, I’m seven foot two But heaven made the perfect room for two And if happiness has a face I know It looks like you, my bella, my home [Bridge] I’m proud of the work you do each day The patient hands, the careful way You give your best when nobody sees Then come back home and give the rest to me So take my hand, amore, don’t be shy I’ll bend down low, you’ll lift your eyes Three little voices cheer from the hall And I’ll love you taller than I am tall [Final Chorus] I married the love of my life My little queen, my beautiful wife You make this tall man’s heart feel brand new Every good thing in me comes back to you You’re five foot two, I’m seven foot two And every day I fall again for you With our three sweet babies laughing at home I’ve got my whole world, bella, my own [Outro] Five foot two, seven foot two Three little hearts, and me loving you My beautiful girl, my beautiful wife You make me so happy for all of my life
