My Heart You'll Tend

The sun was hot and the beer was cold
And something you said made my knees grow old
I can't remember how it started, but I know how it ends
You sobered me right up and to my heart you'll tend
You sobered me right up and to my heart you'll tend

Well, a couple months later I was counting my change
I knew it wouldn't happen then, but it'd happen someday
I'd find the money and the time and a diamond ring
I'd place it right on your finger and get down on one knee
Right on your finger, would you marry me?

And now, looking back
I wouldn't change anything
I'd have still acted a fool that night
I'd still buy you that expensive ring
And on that day in late October, I'd always say I do
The sun goes down, and the moon will rise
And no matter what, I'll be loving you
No matter what, I'll be loving you

Your skin is salty from the ocean air
That Mexican beach, your dirty blond hair
I never thought I'd be here, but here I sit
Yeah, I know how it started, god don't let it end
I know how it started, don't let this end

And now, looking back
I wouldn't change anything
I'd have still acted a fool that night
I'd still buy you that expensive ring
And on that day in late October, I'd always say I do
The sun goes down, and the moon will rise
And no matter what, I'll be loving you
No matter what, I'll be loving you
