Brooklyn had arms and she pulled me down
From the east river to manhattan town
I awed at time square and central park too
And, yeah, they were pretty but got nothing on you
Sure, back in Dallas, we've got some nice things
But I would give it all up just to buy you a ring
And I know it's Paris that you'd like to see
What's really stopping us except what we think
I was always told that you're not wasting money
If you're spending to make a good time
So, honey, let's drop it all and just board the next flight
I know we've got jobs that it seems we can't lose
But only one life and I know what I'll choose
If it came to money or you by my side
I'd pay it all back just to kiss you goodnight
Then in the morning, we'd rise to the day
With no one to tell us anything
Life might get hard but that's the way it must be
Just know that I've got you and you've got me
I was always told that you're not wasting money
If you're spending to make a good time
So, honey, let's drop it all and just board the next flight
