We have lived the plot twists, story arcs and bends
And there is plenty thrilling action left to see
But I don’t need to watch how this movie ends
To know that it’s my all-time favorite, starring you and me
Scene one: where our heroes meet, chatting in the aisle
Making small talk, planting seeds
But she never let on how underneath it all
Things were tearing at the seams
Events foreseen
Act two: some years later when by coincidence
Our star-crossed leads cross paths once more
This time she gathers courage to ask him if he’d like
To see her sometime after hours
Events unfold
We have lived the plot twists, story arcs and bends
And there is plenty thrilling action left to see
But I don’t need to watch how this movie ends
To know that it’s my all-time favorite, starring you and me
And then my favorite sequence plays
A montage of their nights and days
The soundtrack: Dark Side of the Moon
And then he says my favorite line
Rapt in her kaleidoscope eyes
“If you’ll marry me, I’ll marry you”
We have lived the plot twists, story arcs and bends
And there is plenty thrilling action left to see
But I don’t need to watch how this movie ends
To know that it’s my all-time favorite, starring you and me
