[Verse 1]
Silence in the courtyard
Silence in the street
The biggest smile in the world
Is just about to speak
What I want to say is
Four simple words
In this particular order
So here it goes
[Pre-Chorus]
You make me feel
Like nothing has been real
Until now
[Chorus]
Please, I'm on my knees
I concede
Will you marry me?
[Verse 2]
Silence for a moment
Silence from the world
These are the four words
That simply must be heard
I'm not very romantic
And I know I get things wrong
And 'bout the time I get to say I'm sorry
It's been too long
[Pre-Chorus]
But you make me feel
Like nothing has been real
Until now
[Chorus]
Please
(I'd love you in my life)
I'm on my knees
(I want you for my wife)
I concede
(Lead me to the light)
Will you marry me?
Oh, my darling
Please
(I'd love you in my life)
I'm on my knees
(I want you for my wife)
I concede
(Lead me to the light)
[Bridge]
I won't give up
I won't break down
In a little while
So give it up
Or put me down
Anyway meanwhile
[Chorus]
Please
(I'd love you in my life)
I'm on my knees
(I want you for my wife)
I concede
(Lead me to the light)
Will you marry me?
Everybody say
Please
(I want you in my life)
I'm on my knees
(I want you for my wife)
I concede
(Lead me to the light)
Will you marry me?
[Outro]
(I'd love you in my life)
(I want you for my wife)
(Lead me to the light)
Will you marry me?
