As Good As It Gets
US5 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Make the sunrise wait each morning till you open up your eyes
Take the brightest stars at night and write your name across the sky
I wouldn't stop until your world was just the way that it should be
But first I'd make you fall in Love with me

If I had a magic lamp to make my wishes true
I wouldn't have to think at all I would make each one for you
If I caught a falling star and it could make my dreams come true
I've been dreaming all my life of everything I'd do

I'd make the sunrise wait each morning till you open up your eyes
Take the brightest stars at night and write your name across the sky
I wouldn't stop until your world was just the way that it should be
But first I'd make you fall in Love with me

Love can make you wish for powers you cannot posses
But all I'd ever use them for is to bring you happiness
Girl I'm so in love with you there is nothing left to say
Accept that I'd do anything to make you feel this way
Oh, I

I'd make the sunrise wait each morning till you open up your eyes
Take the brightest stars at night and write your name across the sky
I wouldn't stop until your world was just the way that it should be
But first I'd make you fall in Love with me

But first I'd make you fall, Uah
I'd make the sunrise wait each morning till you open up your eyes
Take the brightest stars at night and write your name across the sky
I wouldn't stop until your world was just the way that it should be




But first I'd make you fall in Love with me
But first I'd make you fall in Love with me
