Wholesome romance, minor alcohol simile

Detailed Analysis

These lyrics are largely wholesome and age-appropriate. The song celebrates a loving, committed relationship through imagery of shared experiences, travel, and quality time together. There is a brief reference to wine ('first sip of wine after a long day'), used as a simile to describe the feeling of being with a loved one, not as a glorification of drinking. The spoken-word outro appears to be a quote from an elderly person reflecting on a long marriage, emphasizing communication, commitment, and conflict resolution — all positive relationship values. There are no sexual innuendos, profanity, violence, or disturbing themes. The overall message promotes love, togetherness, and healthy relationship habits.

Lyrics

We could go pop all the champagne in California We could have omakase in Tokyo if you wanna Hypothetically, we could do anything that we like We could hit up all the slopes in matching snowsuits We could hang out at the Louvre all night if you want to We could spend every dime But I don't want anything but more time No matter what we do There's never gonna be an ordinary thing No ordinary things with you It's funny but it's true There's never gonna be an ordinary thing As long as I'm with you You hit just like the first sip of wine after a long day You hit like my biggest fan when I hear what the critiques say You hit just like a green light when I'm stuck runnin' real late I don't need no diamonds, just your time No matter what we do There's never gonna be an ordinary thing No ordinary things with you It's funny but it's true There's never gonna be an ordinary thing As long as I'm with you Ordinary thing Ordinary things with you Ordinary thing As long as I'm with you And when he'd come home, and I'd see him When he first gets off that train (is it difficult?) It was like God almighty arrived, it was like seeing daylight I mean, I could've packed up and left a million times, you know? It's not that we never fought, you can overcome that, you know? It-it's very easy, and as I told her Never go to bed without kissin' goodnight That's the worst thing to do, don't ever, ever do that And if you can't, and if you don't feel comfortable doing it You're in the wrong place, get out
