👉🏻Lyrics

Why do birds suddenly appear

Every time you are near?

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you

Why do stars fall down from the sky

Every time you walk by?

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you

On the day that you were born the angels got together

And decided to create a dream come true

So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold

And starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the girls in town

Follow you all around

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you

👉🏻Lyrics

I see you standing there

In your Hulk outerwear

And all I can think

Is where is the ring

'Cause I know you wanna ask

Scared the moment will pass

I can see it in your eyes

Just take me by surprise

And all my friends, they tell me they see

You're planning to get on one knee

But I want it to be out of the blue

So make sure I have no clue

When you ask

Baby, take my hand

I want you to be my husband

'Cause you're my Iron Man

And I love you 3000

Baby, take a chance

'Cause I want this to be something

Straight out of a Hollywood movie

Now we're having dinner

And baby you're my winner

I see the way you smile

You're thinking about the aisle

You reach in your pocket

Emotion unlocking

And before you could ask

I answer too fast

And all my friends they tell me they see

You're planning to get on one knee

So now I can't stop thinking about you

I figured out all the clues

So now I ask

Pa da da da da dam

No spoilers please

Pa da da da da dam

No spoilers please

Fill my heart with song

And let me sing forever more
