Skipping rope, when I meet your eye

A good turner, a sweet smile

I feel an innocent crush swelling in my heart

It jumps with the rhythm of my feet



Skipping rocks a few summers down,

The sun slowly sinking into the lake

The dim light it produce perfects the scene

Just watching rocks dance across the water



Skipping school just to drive around town

We felt like rebel, breaking free

The wind in my hair, those kisses on my neck

I swear, they were moments I won't forget



Skipping a few beats in my heart's drum line

You slowly kneel down to one knee

A tear in my eye, a diamond ring

My smile broadened the horizon of my face



Skipping bills just to make it by

A love inside us, it still burns

Like the cake that's still in the oven

Like the washer that's now smoking



Skipping work, rushing to the hospital

A baby girl, just entering our new world

Wrapped in pink, cradled in our arm

Starting a new life, falling in love again
