Now you kneel before me

Now you kneel before me with a ring in your hand,
and ask me to marry you with the backing of a band.

i leap to me feet, and yell out yes
i have loved you since we were kids, it is not i confess.

with smiles on both our faces,
we explored unfamiliar places

now we grow old had in hand,
and a familiar song comes on the radio,
yes, your rite it is that same old band.
