I used to think love was much like a puddle you step in
That may culminate in a wedding but ruin your Sunday shoes
But lately I’ve been doing some serious thinking, I caught the train last weekend
And ran through the rain for you
See I'm just like everybody else I don't think for myself usually
Louisiana could bow down, I’m so tired of you feeling down now
I just want you darling could you maybe want me
Let’s go down to the bayou in private
I think I might just buy you a diamond
I'll wring the neck of your ring finger
I only hope this moment lingers
I’ve been writing all of my nice thoughts in a letter
So that I can remember better, How you making feel
But sending my love doesn’t need any postage
All my thoughts wouldn’t fit if I wanted, Guess that was the deal
