I was never the one to be on time

I was only 16 when I met my wife

I took her out on a date, yeah they were good ol' times

I never was late for a Friday night

We lived at least two towns apart

I'd sneak out of my parent's house after dark

Throwing rocks at the window till she'd appear

If I close my eyes I can almost see her

I fell in love back in 1993

I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep

So I told her I did and she did too

We got a two room apartment and ate takeout food

It wasn't even a year and we were on our way

The doctor says "It's a girl and have you picked a name?"

And if she meets some boy two towns apart

I'll be up till dawn watching for his car

But for now I'm up every night and day

You know I wouldn't have it any other way

I fell in love back in 1993

I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep

Sweet little thing got my wrapped around her finger

I fell in love back in 1993

I blink my eyes and I'm thinking that this can't be right

That little miss became a woman over night

She's getting married and she says that he's a lot like me

Maybe I just fell asleep in front of MTV, all I know is that

I fell in love back in 1993

I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep

Still like your conversation and you still look good to me

This thing all started back in 1993

I fell in love back in 1993

I fell in love back in 1993

This thing all started back in 1-9-9-3

I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep

This all started back in 1993
