Intro
Verse
Love starts with a toothbrush, a Bic razor and a Dixie cup
A little splash of aftershave, before you leave for that first date
I see stars in both your eyes, after that long kiss goodnight
Verse
Forever starts with a suitcase, sneaking out the window to get away
To the car parked by the curb, gassed up for a Gatlinburg
A little chapel and a couple of rings, will get you two toothbrushes by the bathroom sink
[CHOURS]
Everything that's anything, starts out as a little thing
Just needs a little time and room to grow
Step by step, day by day
It all adds up along the way
And the next thing that you know
Verse
Life starts with a little house, a corner lot on the edge of town
A weed eater and a picket fence, you think it's good as the getting gets
Then she wakes up feeling bad, you both wonder what's up with that
[CHOURS]
Everything that's anything, starts out as a little thing
Just needs a little time and room to grow
Step by step, day by day
It all adds up along the way
And the next thing that you know
Verse
One night around eight o'clock, you scrub him down then you dry him off
You pick him up and put his little feet, on the stool by the bathroom sink
You grab the crest and the Dixie cup, it all hits you as he opens up...
Love starts with a toothbrush
