[Verse 1]
This is a three minute song
To tell her that I love her
And how wonderful we get along
A sweet sentiment that's borderline slick
A lot of right and not much wrong
It's a little bit edgy, but softer than spaghetti
Weak yet redundantly strong
It's a three minute positive
Not too country up-tempo love song
[Chorus]
Yeah, it's a three minute positive
Not to country up-tempo love song
It's a way to tell her that I love her
But it can't be too long
There'll be no drinking, no cheating
No lying, no leaving
That stuff it just don't belong
In a three minute positive
Not too county up-tempo love song
[Verse 2]
You won't hear four-letter words
Just me telling her
That she's the every breath I draw
And how I can't live without her
And I could never doubt her
Because she could never do no wrong
Well it's the right amount of timing
The proper form of rhyming
A little guitar then it's gone
It's a three minute positive
Not too country up-tempo love song
[Chorus] [x2]
This is a three minute song

And how wonderful we get along
A sweet sentiment that's borderline slick

It's a three minute positive
Not too country up-tempo love song
[Chorus]
Yeah, it's a three minute positive
Not to country up-tempo love song
