I was waiting at the station down in Houston
Thinking, "Shit, this is gonna go all wrong"
You stepped off the bus and we started talking
Didn't know that's where we both belonged
I was nervous, I was second-guessing
But you had a spark I couldn't deny
We were just a couple kids on a detour
Underneath that heavy Texas sky
ChorusMike, you work so hard in everything you do
So funny and sexy, yeah, I'm crazy for you
You always want to spend your time with me
And make me smile so effortlessly
When the sun goes down and we turn out the light
I love the way you hold me in the middle of the night
We took the long way, but we made it through
Now I'm so happy right here with you
Verse 2We packed our bags and moved to different states
Living separate lives across the map
But we started talking, picking up the phone
Closing up that long-distance gap
Then you got on a bus from Arkansas
Riding to Ohio to be by my side
I saw you step down to the pavement again
And I knew we were in for a beautiful ride
ChorusMike, you work so hard in everything you do
So funny and sexy, yeah, I'm crazy for you
You always want to spend your time with me
And make me smile so effortlessly
When the sun goes down and we turn out the light
I love the way you hold me in the middle of the night
We took the long way, but we made it through
Now I'm so happy right here with you
BridgeNo more living out of suitcases and bags
No more waiting on the phone to get the scoop
I'm laying down the law right here and now:
Mike, no more boops, baby, no more boops!
Final Chorus'Cause Mike, you work so hard in everything you do
So funny and sexy, yeah, I'm crazy for you
You always want to spend your time with me
And make me smile so effortlessly
When the sun goes down and we turn out the light
I love the way you hold me in the middle of the night
We took the long way, but we made it through
Now I'm so happy right here with you
