[Verse 1]
From the moment that I met you,
I've been hoping I would get to,
Be the one that you adore,
So I've been trying more and more.
I gave you two dozen roses.
Honeybees went up our noses.
I bought you some fancy chocolate.
Melted right through my back pocket.
I said I'd walk your cute little doggy.
I forgot. Now your carpet is soggy.
[Chorus]
I know so far I'm not off to that great a start,
But I won't give up 'til I win your heart.
[Verse 2]
I brought you a cup of cocoa.
Hey, nice new white shoes! Oops! Oh no!
You let me use your iPad.
I've never seen one melt so bad.
I bought you some fine perfume.
Turns out Febreze is just for rooms.
I carried you across a puddle.
We fell into a big mud hole.
Last year I put a funny fake tattoo,
On your cheek. It still looks brand new.
[Chorus]
I know so far I'm not off to that great a start,
But I won't give up 'til I win your heart.
[Verse 3]
I thought I'd write on your sidewalk,
With some fancy sidewalk chalk:
"You smell like roses in the sun."
I wrote, "You smell--" then had to run.
I bought a basket of nice fruit,
And left it at your door-- how cute.
It's too bad an ugly rat,
Died right where the fruit was at.
You saw the dead rat and the note from me.
It said, "This is how sweet a kiss from you would be."
[Chorus]
I know so far I'm not off to that great a start,
But I won't give up 'til I win your heart.
[Verse 4]
You finally let me buy you dinner.
My first date; I'm a beginner.
We ate at the new gas station.
Hot dogs got my stomach complaining.
Put some gas into your car,
But not the kind that takes you far,
Then I bought you some ice cream.
In it, I hid my grandma's ring.
You bit down and a tooth came out.
Now you sound so cute when you shout.
[Chorus]
I know so far I'm not off to that great a start,
But I won't give up 'til I win your heart.
[Verse 5]
I sent you a sweet text message:
"Sorry for all of the messes."
Tried to text, "I think you're pretty."
Forgot the "R", you said, "Don't bug me!".
My friends tell me I should give up.
There's no way that I'll win your love,
But I've only just begun.
I won't quit 'til your heart is won.
Today I gave you fifty big red balloons.
Looks like you'll be landing soon.
[Chorus]
I know so far I'm not off to that great a start,
But I won't give up 'til I win your heart.
No, I won't give up 'til I win your heart.
I won't give up 'til I win your heart.
