I Propose

It's come around again

The day when I put it all on the line

The time when I pick a clean shirt, a suit and a tie

And buy an unreasonably expensive bottle of wine

Here comes the nerves again

How it will go is anyone's guess but mine

Still doing what I can to appear at my best

And hoping that this time's the time

She finally gives in and says yes'

I've done my research and I've seen the men

Who get taken to task for failing to ask

Don't I get points for asking seven times?

I don't know why Frodo was whining

He said I've been carrying this ring for over a year!

I'm like Frodo, hold my beer!

Cause at least you'll finally reach Mordor

Buddy, I'm nowhere near

Men conquer mountains and men swim the seas

And rocky trained hard and kept up his guard

A heavyweight classic world champion of the ring

If he didn't give up then neither shall I

I will duck and I'll weave and then she'll believe

That we're meant to walk down the aisle

So, I know that this time is different

And this proposal will all be worthwhile

So, if she says no like the last time

Or when she says no like the last time

No! If she says no like the last time

At least it'll make my girl smile
