Theresa Lyrics

I see her standing there on the sidelines

Hazel brown eyes under blue skies

She would never know that I let go of all my plans that day

Trying not to stare, got me tongue-tied

What a surprise, didn't realize

She would take my life and make it right the second she said "hey"

Theresa, I know it's only been a couple days

But I love you in every single way there is to love someone

Theresa, I know they're gonna chase us left and right

But if you ever ask me to spend the night

I won't run

Now we're making plans in the background

Hiding out loud, live for right now

Never have I ever said forever but I can't erase

And your father's mad, but what's new?

He don't accept you like he's supposed to

If he kicks you out we'll get a house and teach our kids some day

That they can't pray a love like this away

Theresa, I know it's only been a couple months

But my journal seems to think that you're the one

So who's to say it's wrong?

Theresa, I know that they keep chasing left and right

But they'll never catch the dream of you and I

So I won't run

Flash forward 70 years

I know your favorite takeout orders and your ten biggest fears

You know I'm fragile and afraid of what's to come

But we both know our story lasts because this love is love

Theresa, I know that it's been one hell of a ride

But without you how could I live in this life or learn to love someone

Theresa, whenever you get to the other side

Know that I'll be there with my arms open wide

And we can run

And we can run
