One On The Way

(album: Lavender - 2023)

Heart stopped when I saw your black dress
Long hair, looked like an actress
I was leaving, started thinking
Of questions to ask
I took my shot to get to know ya
One more tequila soda
I said "Hello", made a bad joke
And you faked a laugh
And said, "Are you gonna buy me a drink?"

Said I got one on the way, I was reading the signs
Didn't know what you'd say but I had to try
I knew I'd regret if I let you pass me by
I didn't know your name but I loved your smile
Some chances you take change your whole life
So I bought another round if that's okay

I got one on the way
I got one on the way

Six months, I had no doubts
My friends told me to slow down
But we were falling, already all in
Knew it was meant to last
That summer I made some big plans
Something to wear on your left hand
We went to Paris, I was talking marriage
And you just laughed
And said, "Are you gonna buy me a ring?"

Said I got one on the way, I was reading the signs
Didn't know what you'd say but I'd spent my last dime
I knew I'd regret if I let you pass me by
I knew it was fast but I knew it was right
Some chances you take change your whole life
I wanna give you all of mine if that's okay

I've got one on the way
I've got one on the way

And one dive bar, and one first kiss
Who knew we'd end up like this
Life is full of turns and twists
Like finding out these two kids

Got one on the way and for the first time
I don't know what to say looking into your eyes
Guess the greatest things will catch you by surprise
Now we're thinking of names and we can't decide
Crazy how one moment changes your whole life
And we might be scared to death but that's okay

We got one on the way
We got one on the way
We got one on the way
