[Verse 1]
I've been around the world so wide
I've loved a few and made some cry
But that's a story that does not bear repeating
'Cause, this is now and now's the time
These precious hours of yours and mine
How they come and they go, so few and fleeting

[Chorus]
I wanna marry you, you heard me right
I wanna be with you day and night
I wanna hear you say "Forever more I do"
I wanna hear you say "I'll marry you"

[Verse 2]
Now, I don't want to over think this
I've waited long enough I think this
Is the appropriate time for what I'm feeling
I'm doing this because I choose
To do it now before I lose
The element of surprise in what I'm revealing

[Chorus]
I wanna marry you, you heard me right
I wanna be with you day and night
I wanna hear you say "Forever more I do"
I wanna hear you say "I'll marry you"
[Piano Solo]

[Verse 3]
I've been around the world so wide
Searching low and oh so high
For just a nugget of truth amidst the confusion
Well, poetry is not my strength
I got a tendency to go on at length
So permit me to leave you with my conclusion

[Outro]
I wanna marry you, you heard me right
Yeah, I wanna be with you day and night
I wanna hear you say "Forever more I do"
I wanna hear you say "I'll marry you"
I wanna hear you say "I'll marry you"
I wanna hear you say "I'll marry you"
