Lyrics

How do you fall in love

and (A)when do you say, “I do.”

When is the per fect time

to (Em7)spend the rest of your (A)life?

(Bm)Sea sons may come and go.

And (A)some times it rains and snows.

And there will be highs and lows.

So, (Em7)on ly (A7)you will (D)know.

You (G)nev er know just where it will find you,

’cause (G)it can come on you so fast,

or (G)seems like it takes for ev er

when you want it so bad.

But (G)don’t ev er take it for grant ed,

’cause (G)it’s more than sow in’ some seeds.

And (G)it takes sun and wa ter,

so give it what it needs.

And (D)know.

And there will be highs and lows,

so, (Em7)on ly (A7sus)you will (D)know.
