I've had the talk so many times already
To explain to you where exactly my head is
To say thank you and somehow explain
That I am what I am and I think I'm here to stay
I'd never wanna paint an incorrect picture
You bought me whisky with vanilla. No need for a mixer
Dinner and a movie, fire and water
I want joy like this to share with your daughter
A cool breeze outside on a summer night
I want nights like these
I remember every detail of that night and others
And I worry you think that I have forgotten
When you try with ease and it's all so good
I'm saddened by the mirror in which I've always stood
I need you to know that I wanna be there
But here are my troubles and they're not yours to bare
Dinner and a movie, fire and water
I want joy like this to share with your daughter
A cool breeze outside on a summer night
I want nights like these for the rest of my life
She hasn't told you yet but I bought her a ring
I'm sorry I didn't ask before for your blessing
I want you to know, I'm aiming for you
And if I even get close I hope you'll pull us through
I wanna sit back and relax in a chair
I wanna feel at home and I wanna share
Dinner and a movie, fire and water
I want joy like this to share with your daughter
And a cool breeze outside on a summer night
I want nights like these for the rest of my life
I want nights like these for the rest of my life
