Common Grounds

Look at those two

They don’t even know

What they are getting themselves into

Walking into that old downtown coffee house

It’s a first date

Both of them afraid

Because they barely know each other

End up talking there for hours anyway

Then the days go by

Three hundred sixty five

And everything is different

But everything’s the same

I know that you’re the one

And this ain’t just a game

Everything is different

And everything’s the same

Mmmmm

I went from runaway not knowing if I was ready

To shadows in the headlights thinking maybe this was real

And now I’m absolutely head over heels in love

With the man I got to know inside that old coffee shop

He’s on one knee

With a promise and a ring

Saying, “Haley, would you make me

The happiest man in the world

And marry me?”

Now everything is different

But everything’s the same

I know that you’re the one

And this ain’t just a game

Everything is different

And everything’s the same

But I’ll be taking your last name
