Would It Be Alright?
By: Jeff Krause

I’ll keep that secret of how we met
Up on the phone ‘til six AM
My heart runs miles out before my head
And I believe in an old romance

So would it be alright to kiss you?
Out in public may I hold your hand?
I’d proud to call you partner
You can damn sure call me your man

We all start out afraid to fall
I don’t regret the pain at all
Don’t keep old love letters and photographs
But I’m made from collections of the past
Good and bad

So would it be alright to kiss you?
Are you willing to take a chance?
I’d proud to call you partner
You can damn sure call me your man

My hands are filled with scars
They’ve done hard labor and they’ve made art
Won’t trade that callous for softer skin
It’s better than a quiet regret

So would it be alright to kiss you?
Out in public may I hold your hand?
I’d proud to call you partner
You can damn sure call me your man

So would it be alright to kiss you?
Are you willing to take a chance?
I’d proud to call you partner
And honored to be your man
Be honored to be your man
