Smooth female lead on this country pop crossover hit

Lyrics

Verse 1

Sunday morning pancakes on the table

You two are laughing, sharing an old fable

I watch your hands meet in the light

Wondering what stories hide from sight

Pre-Chorus

Curious hearts searching for a clue

Questions growing with each day anew

Chorus

Dad and Mom, what do the birds and bees mean

Is it just about flowers and honey in the spring

Why do you smile, try to laugh and hide

Tell me softly, let your hearts decide

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, tell me true

Oh, oh, me and you

Verse 2

Saw an old movie, they talked with a wink

You changed the channel, I started to think

Why does my heart feel funny at school

When Johnny looks over, why do I swoon

Pre-Chorus

Sometimes you blush and look away

But I got questions every day

Chorus

Dad and Mom, what do the birds and bees mean

Is there magic in kisses, is it more than it seems

I don't need a book, just a quiet night

Tell me softly, let your hearts decide

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, tell me true

Oh, oh, me and you

Bridge

You always say love comes around slow

But sometimes my heart just wants to know

With stories and glances, and hands that fit tight

How does it happen on a Saturday night

Verse 3

Maybe one day I'll figure it out

Why people hold hands, what crushes are about

You tell me to listen, just follow my dreams

And trust that the world is gentle as it seems

Pre-Chorus

One day I'll dance into the truth

Catch the meaning, just like you

Chorus

Dad and Mom, what do the birds and bees mean

Is it promises whispered you never can see

All I want now is a little guide

Hold me closer, let your hearts decide

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, staying true

Oh, oh, me and you
