Verse 1
Standing in line for a show
You turned around and I forgot the words I rehearsed
Borrowed a pen off a stranger
Wrote my number on a napkin like a nervous kid
Your laugh cut through the whole room
I knew right then I was finished
Pre-Chorus
Been three years and some change
Still got that napkin in a drawer
Still get nervous when you call
Chorus
I wanna put a ring on it slow
Build a little house with a noisy yard
I wanna wake up old beside you
Wanna be the man your mama trusts
I wanna marry you
Yeah I wanna marry you
Verse 2
You fix my plate before your own
Scold me when I skip my meds again
Fall asleep on my shoulder mid-movie
I just sit still so you don't move
Picturing a small hand in yours
Picturing your eyes on a kid
My whole future got your name on it
Pre-Chorus
Every plan I make
Every dime I save
Somehow it turns into you
Chorus
I wanna put a ring on it slow
Build a little house with a noisy yard
I wanna wake up old beside you
Wanna be the man your mama trusts
I wanna marry you
Yeah I wanna marry you
Verse 3: Female Vocalist
He remembers how I take my tea
Remembers every little thing I said in passing
When I'm spiraling at midnight
He just holds me till the morning finds us
I would follow him through anything
He is steady he is patient he is mine
So when he asks I already know my answer
Bridge
Slow down take my hand
We got time but not enough
Slow down take my hand
Let me say it out loud
Chorus
I wanna put a ring on it slow
Build a little house with a noisy yard
I wanna wake up old beside you
Wanna be the man your mama trusts
I wanna marry you
Yeah I wanna marry you
Chorus
I wanna marry you
I wanna marry you
Grow gray with me
Grow old with me
I wanna marry you
