Oh, pretty baby, I wanna carve you out of stone
Like they did in ancient Rome
That way you'll live forever
And I'll write a book of a heaven, you'll be the divine
Leave it where someone can find
So people will worship you to enter
Time has got the upper hand
And I will write your name in sand
Even when the tide washes it away
You said, "If I know one thing's for certain
It's one day, life will close its curtain"
And if that's the case, why don't we give 'em the best show?
Oh, pretty baby, I wanna put you in a song
So that people sing along for centuries after
I'll be the jester as long as you are my queen
Make a fool out of me
I wanna be the source of your laughter
Time has got the upper hand
And I will write your name in sand
Even when the tide washes it away
You said, "If I know one thing's for certain
It's one day, life will close its curtain"
And if that's the case, why don't we give 'em a best show?
Ah, ah, ah
Hey, ah
