Lyrics Allie's Notebook (with Ruddy Rodda) - Madison Hughes

I want you back again, I do
I want you back again, I do
I don't like playing by the rules, the rules
Ooh

Baby I thought I'd let you know
I think you're fine from head to toe
I know some places we could go
Is your answer yes or no
I'm tryna get this thing on lock
Let's take a walk down to the dock
I'm fine if we just take this slow
Just know I'm competing with the clock
Oh, for your love

Keep rowing this boat with me
Staying afloat with me
Love the way you be holding me
Speaking that poetry
Just keep rowing this boat with me
Keep rowing this boat with me, oh
Hey yeah
Hey ah ey

I wanna lie down with you on your front porch
I wanna sing to Sinatra back and forth
See a drive-in movie in your 40s Ford
Reading scripture after verse about who we are
I wanna ride down a backroad getting lost
I wanna jump in the lake when its early August
When it comes to this love man I'm just a novice
When I tell you that I love you know I'm being honest

I don't want no fairytale
No Hollywood, no holy grail
I don't want no fairytale
I want something real
I won't let this fail
I don't want no love that's stale
Is that understood
'Cause we're setting sail, oh we're setting sail babe

It's the story of two star-crossed lovers
Who meet and they discover
They have feelings for another
A love just like no other
Met in downtown Charleston
You took me to The American
Then danced the streets till half past ten
And I would do it all again if you just

Keep rowing this boat with me, oh
Keep staying afloat with me
Love the way you be holding me
Keep speaking that poetry
Keep rowing this boat with me
Keep rowing this, rowing this oh

Baby I thought I'd let you know
I think you're fine from head to toe
I know some places we could go
Is your answer yes or no
I'm tryna get this thing on lock
Let's take a walk down to the dock
I'm fine if we just take this slow
Just know I'm competing with the clock
For your love, For your love

La la la la la la la la la la
It's the story of two star-crossed lovers
Who meet and they discover
They have feelings for another
A love just like no other
