So I have under two minutes

to sing you this song

It's quite the challenge actually

because I've loved you so long

And I know I'm always right

and so you think I'm good with words

but I can hardly express how I feel

'cause words aren't why love is real



There was a message in a bottle

at the bottom of the sea

Somebody [?] scrap of paper accid-d-dentally

So their letter never made it to the lover they adore

I had to fish it from the ocean floor

and I know you won't believe me 

but I swear to God it's true

The letter said, "I love you, but I don't know why I do."



And that's exactly when it hit me:

that's exactly how I feel

'cause though my love is real,

I don't know why I love you, I just do



Now, I have under fifty seconds

to finish this song

It's still surprising people wonder how we lasted so long

Do you remember when we wed how everyone said it was wrong?

But really, who cares how they feel?

'Cause wise friends aren't why love is real

and I don't know why I love you, I just do



Now, there's a singer in New York

His name is Dave Decores [?]

and i stole a longer [?] verse from him

to make my chorus

And i'd write it by myself,

except what can you do but steal

when what you want to say has already been written?



And this happens all the time

in books and songs that you can write [?]

He said the last one is a secret,

since for that one you'll get fined

I'm getting off the subject 

but at least it's not a crime

But though my love is real

Oh, my love is real

I don't know why I love you I just do
