[Verse 3]
Push the door, I'm home at last
And I'm soaking through and through
And then you handed me a towel
And all I see is you
And even if my house falls down now
I wouldn't have a clue
Because you're near me
[Chorus]
And I want to thank you
For giving me the best day of my life
And oh, just to be with you
Is having the best day of my life
And I want to thank you
For giving me the best day of my life
And oh, just to be with you
Is having the best day of my life
