Love starts with a toothbrush a bic razor and a dixie cup
a little splash of aftershave before you leave for that first date
Seeing stars in both your eyes after that first kiss goodnight
Forever starts with a suitcase sneaking out the window getaway
to the car parked by the curb gassed up for Gatlinburg
a little chapel and couple of rings
will get you two toothbrushes by the bathroom sink
Everything that’s anything starts out as a little think
it just needs a little time and room to grow
Step by step day by day it all adds up along the way
and the next thing that you know
Life starts with a little house
a corner lot on the edge of town
a weedeater and a picket fence
think its as good as the getting gets
then she wakes up feeling bad and you both wonder whats up with that
Everything that’s anything starts out as a little think
it just needs a little time to grow
Step by step day by day it all adds up along the way
and the next thing that you know
one night around 8 oclock
you scrub him down and then you dry him off
pick him up and put his little feet on the counter by the bathroom sink
you grab the crest and a dixie cup it all hits you as he opens up Love starts with a toothbrush
