I was never the one to be on time
I was only 16 when I met my wife
I took her out on a date, yeah they were good ol' times
I never was late for a Friday night
We lived at least two towns apart
I'd sneak out of my parent's house after dark
Throwing rocks at the window till she'd appear
If I close my eyes I can almost see her
I fell in love back in 1993
I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep
So I told her I did and she did too
We got a two room apartment and ate takeout food
It wasn't even a year and we were on our way
The doctor says "It's a girl and have you picked a name?"
And if she meets some boy two towns apart
I'll be up till dawn watching for his car
But for now I'm up every night and day
You know I wouldn't have it any other way
I fell in love back in 1993
I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep
Sweet little thing got my wrapped around her finger
I fell in love back in 1993
I blink my eyes and I'm thinking that this can't be right
That little miss became a woman over night
She's getting married and she says that he's a lot like me
Maybe I just fell asleep in front of MTV, all I know is that
I fell in love back in 1993
I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep
Still like your conversation and you still look good to me
This thing all started back in 1993
I fell in love back in 1993
I fell in love back in 1993
This thing all started back in 1-9-9-3
I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep
This all started back in 1993
