I found the love of my life
And nothing could be better between us
But I started off by telling this one tiny lie
And can't help but wonder if our love will get hit by a giant bus

I don't know how to rectify the situation
What we have is so heavenly
I don't want to further complicate the equation
We express our love so sensually

My adoration for her fills my heart
She is my only purpose
But it feels like I'm pushing a very heavy cart
And it's causing me a disservice

A cart, heavy with this burden
The burden of a tiny mistruth
With the impact of a canon
And the ability to destroy youth

But I am what keeps her sanity in check
I show her just how worthy she truly is
Without me, she'd be a wreck
Is this a test, or just a quiz

Probably a test, a test of true love
If what we have is real
Then we can get past the rough
Because what we have is stronger than steel

I can show her my true self
Without having to hide this one small detail
We can demonstrate our relationship's health
And continue living this fairytale
