Verse 1

 Baby, take off your coat

And I'll loosen my tie

Well you are far too beautiful

For us to turn off the lights

Your December skin

And the trail of our clothes

You can keep your socks on

If your feet are cold

Chorus

Sounds good playing these all open):

But I don't want to have to ask permission

Give me a chance

It won't be perfect

 Just an unbroken promise from an imperfect man

Verse 2

 Your red wine tongue

My sudden loss of breath

You like the sound of my heartbeat

When you lay your head on my chest

Chorus

But I don't want to have to ask permission

Give me a chance

It won't be perfect

 Just an unbroken promise from an imperfect man

Bridge

So draw all the curtains, All the goodbyes are gone

Love found through love gone wrong

An unbroken promise from this broken man

To love you the best that I can

Verse 3

 So baby, please take off your coat

Ohh and I'll turn on the lights

Cause baby I made plans

(no strumming)

To stay the rest of my life
