(Verse 1)
Well I slipped in through the dog door,
’Cause your porch light wasn’t on.
I thought, “Surprise her like in movies!”
Turns out movies had me wrong.
Your mama’s rooster started crowin’,
Then your daddy yelled, “Who’s there?!”
I tripped over a laundry basket
And somersaulted down the stairs.
(Pre-Chorus)
But girl, I swear my heart was pure,
Even if my plan was dumb…
I thought I’d swoop in like a hero—
Instead I looked real troublesome.
(Chorus)
’Cause I was tryin’ to be romantic,
Not a late-night house intruder!
I just wanted to hold you close,
Not get chased off by your scooter.
I was sneakin’ in to cuddle,
Not to trigger your alarm…
Baby, I swear I came in peace—
My intentions had no harm!
(Verse 2)
I tiptoed into your bedroom
Thinkin’ you’d whisper, “Is that you?”
But you screamed like you saw Bigfoot
In a flannel shirt and boots.
Then you clocked me with a pillow,
Your dog bit me in the thigh…
I said, “Honey, it’s just your boyfriend!”
But you hollered, “Boy, nice try!”
(Pre-Chorus)
So before you call the sheriff
Like you almost did last night…
Let me tell you what I meant, girl,
Let me try to set it right…
(Chorus)
I was tryin’ to be romantic,
Not a prowler in the moonlight!
Just wanted to surprise my girl,
Not ruin everybody’s night.
I brought roses in my pocket,
’Cept they got crushed when I fell…
Baby, I swear I came in love,
Not to give you all that hell.
(Bridge)
Now I know communication
Is the key to love and trust…
Next time I’ll knock like normal folks,
’Cause sneakin’ in ain’t for us.
And girl, I hope you’ll still forgive me,
Even though it looked insane…
But I only broke into your house
’Cause you done broke into my heart again.
(Final Chorus)
I was tryin’ to be romantic,
Not a midnight burglar clown…
Just wanted to kiss you sweetly,
Not get tackled to the ground.
Yeah, my plan was real pathetic,
But my love is still legit…
Baby, next time I’ll send a text—
That way nobody gets bit!
