Rare Thing

Looking at the stars tonight
I know the cards don't lie
you and me, baby that's all there ever was
now and then you've got to flip a coin
but life's too short not to get to the point
and that's you're the only one I dream about
I can't live without your love

Oh Honey, you're a rare thing
since the day I started caring I've been hooked
you wrote the book on making me smile
Your mama said that it would never last
but these years go by so fast
and you're the song I'm humming to myself as I'm counting the miles
mm you're such a rare thing

So I will keep these memories like so many melodies
you think I'm crazy but I don't wanna miss a note
it's like a car you gotta drive real fast or a chance you gotta take before the moment's past
I gotta love you and I hope by now you know

Oh Honey, you're a rare thing
since the day I started caring you've been giving me gold
they broke the mold when they built you Babe
Our friends said it would never last
but these years go by so fast
and you're the song I'm singing to myself at the end of the day
yeah you're such a rare thing

So dry your eyes
they're all waiting outside
raising their glasses to us
all because

Oh Honey you're a rare thing
since the day I started caring I've been hooked
you keep writing the book I hope you don't ever stop
I know they said that it would never last
but these years go by so fast
and you're the song that I wanna hear echoing in the parking garage
you're such a rare thing!
