Jack and Ella

Let me tell you a story about a boy and a girl
And their names were Jack and Ella
And here's how they ended up with the most beautiful little baby girl
And her name was Stella
One night Jack was on a tear using these impossibly sincere words
Like madly and truly
And Ella said, "Jack, how do I know you're for real?"
"How do I know it's not all talk or some kind of hyperbole?"
He said, "Ella let me tell you, you'll know it when I kiss you"
"You won't know what hit you"
She said, "Jack dear, I don't know if I should let you"
"I might need some talking into"
He said, "There's one thing I'm sure of and what I'm sure of is you"
"Darling, let me prove it to you."
"You won't regret a thing, this I promise you"
Let me tell you about a man named Sonny and how his disposition
Well, it wasn't his namesake
He spent his twenties feeling sad
Man, he thought that it was grand
But in the end it was a fool's errand
And this whole time, right by his side was his lovely hope-to-be bride
And her name was Sarah
She didn't mind his lack of smiles
She was a fan of the dark and brooding
Heathcliff style
Then one day the sun did rose and shined it's light on all he had
And I believe his words were, "It's not that bad"
He said, "There's one thing I'm sure of and what I'm sure of is you"
"I'm sorry it took me so long dear."
"I'll never take you for granted again, this I promise you"
Bernadette, Bernadette, Bernadette, Bernadette
She was quite a waitress
The only problem was she wished she was doing something else
Somewhere else, probably Paris
Every morning she served that coffee extra sweet and with a smile
Just thinking time's a wastin'
But in her farsightedness she didn't realize that these small things
Well, you know that they're wildly important
Till one day Tuesday Joe told her something
He thought she ought to know
Well, he held her hand and this is what he said
He said, "There's one thing I'm sure of and what I'm sure of is you
Seeing you every morning is the best part of my day dear
And that means a hell of a lot to me, this I promise you"
