It was magic the first time I saw you
You smiled at me with cautious eyes-so-green
And said I figure that you must be Kyle
It never felt so good to hear my name
You said
So where exactly is it that we're going
And if I'd known then what I know now
I'd smile back at you and say
God only knows oh the places, the places we'll go
I would say God only knows
Oh the places, oh the places we'll go
Destination: beautiful Chicago
The Christmas lights were shining brightly so
Your dancing caused you
To fall down to the slippery snow
Picked you up and I could not let go
I could not let go
We stayed up all night the hotel lobby
Inter-locking fingers all the way
And shared a couple very knowing glances
When we weren't quite sure just what to say
We drove a crush home from the Windy City
To our cornfield of a college town
And stayed up basically the next six days straight
Focusing on figuring us out
It was the third day I had to kiss you
And tell you every stupid thing I've ever done
And on the fifth day I really knew you
I realized I was in love
And if I'd known then what I know now
I would say God only knows
Oh the places that we'll go
I would say God only knows
Oh the places, oh the places we'll go
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure
I would say that God only knows
Oh the places, the places we'll go
I would say that God only knows
Oh the places, oh the places we'll go
