I was never the one to be on time I was only 16 when I met my wife I took her out on a date, yeah they were good ol' times I never was late for a Friday night We lived at least two towns apart I'd sneak out of my parent's house after dark Throwing rocks at the window till she'd appear If I close my eyes I can almost see her I fell in love back in 1993 I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep So I told her I did and she did too We got a two room apartment and ate takeout food It wasn't even a year and we were on our way The doctor says "It's a girl and have you picked a name?" And if she meets some boy two towns apart I'll be up till dawn watching for his car But for now I'm up every night and day You know I wouldn't have it any other way I fell in love back in 1993 I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep Sweet little thing got my wrapped around her finger I fell in love back in 1993 I blink my eyes and I'm thinking that this can't be right That little miss became a woman over night She's getting married and she says that he's a lot like me Maybe I just fell asleep in front of MTV, all I know is that I fell in love back in 1993 I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep Still like your conversation and you still look good to me This thing all started back in 1993 I fell in love back in 1993 I fell in love back in 1993 This thing all started back in 1-9-9-3 I fell in love and I'm never going back to sleep This all started back in 1993
