Just Gets Better

(album: Victory Lap - 2020)

Looking back I couldn't wait just for the first date
Want to take you out and treat you like it's first rate
But my bank account is really in the worst state
Feeling like a jerk face stuck up in the worst place
I wanna see you in the worst way
Would've settled for burrito or a burnt steak
But it's enough to stare at your face
Still remember what you just was wearing on the first day
And I'm feeling I'm super nervous
Got me sweating like I'm running all up through a furnace
A little unsure barely knew my purpose
I got a lotta baggage from all my past and burdens
But here we are staring at each other
Driving in the car makes me really kind of wonder
Why did it take so long just to discover
Want to tell her how I feel cuz you know I love her

Yeah we ain't always had enough but it just gets better
Yeah we can make it through whatever long as we're together
And I'm so glad you're my wife 21 years and I'm down for life
We can celebrate and get it on tonight cause it just gets better
Just gets better, yeah

Now here we are all these years later
Married for 20 plus but I still date her
Out the door told the babysitter see you later
Sitting at the table while I'm staring at the paper
Give me this and this and hold the tomato'
I put the menu down then I told the waiter
The food's looking good but she got the flavor
We ain't getting older we just getting greater
Do me a favor smile a little bit
Pulled out the phone and I snapped up a little pic
Then I asked how's ya work and how you dealing with
Are you feeling it are you really getting sick of kids
Now I'm staring where the ceiling is
Thinking about how over time you know my feelings get
Stronger with every second of the life I live
Leaned over gave a kiss and then I said

Yeah we ain't always had enough but it just gets better
Yeah we can make it through whatever long as we're together
And I'm so glad you're my wife 21 years and I'm down for life
We can celebrate and get it on tonight cause it just gets better
Just gets better, yeah
