No fine print. No expiration date. No escape clause. Just your name next to mine. Sign that shit. [Verse 1] We never needed paper just to tell us what was real, Every year became a signature, every scar became a seal, Every argument we survived put another line in ink, Every time we almost broke taught us more than people think. This ain’t some fairy tale where everything stayed clean, We’ve seen beautiful beginnings turn into complicated scenes, But when the smoke cleared out and everybody disappeared, You were still the fucking woman standing with me right here. So put the terms on the table, I’ll read every single line, Your stubborn with my crazy, your forever next to mine, Your bad days, my temper, every flaw we couldn’t hide, Every midnight conversation where we swallowed fucking pride. I’ll take all of it together, I don’t want the edited draft, Give me mornings full of chaos, give me nights where we just laugh, Give me every future wrinkle, every memory looking back— Where the fuck do I sign? Baby, give me the contract. [Hook] Give me the contract, Put forever in the fine print, Your name beside mine, That’s the only fucking line I need. No loopholes, no take-backs, No running when the world cracks, If loving you’s the deal— Baby, I’m signing that contract. The contract, Every pleasure, every scar, Every promise that we made Made us exactly who we are. Put the velvet on the table, Lay the pen beside the glass— I’d choose your ass forever. Give me the contract. [Verse 2] Clause one: when shit gets ugly, we don’t throw the years away, Clause two: keep finding reasons to still want each other every day, Clause three: never let the outside write the story that we live, Clause four: don’t keep a fucking score when love requires you to give. Clause five: keep the laughter when responsibility gets heavy, Clause six: when one is falling, other better hold ‘em steady, Clause seven: tell the truth even when truth can fucking sting, Clause eight: don’t ever let routine erase the fire from this thing. And somewhere underneath it, written smaller than the rest, “Never stop discovering the person you know best.” Because familiarity can either bury or ignite, And somehow you still surprise me after all these fucking nights. That’s the part nobody tells you when you’re standing saying vows, Forever isn’t something then—it’s something chosen fucking now, Again tomorrow, then the next day, every time the world attacks, Marriage ain’t one signature— We keep signing the contract. [Hook] Give me the contract, Put forever in the fine print, Your name beside mine, That’s the only fucking line I need. No loopholes, no take-backs, No running when the world cracks, If loving you’s the deal— Baby, I’m signing that contract. [Bridge] Private obsession. Behind closed doors. House rules written For something that’s ours. Velvet restraint. Beautiful surrender. Guilty pleasures We always remember. No witnesses. No looking back. Everything led us Straight to the contract. [Verse 3] See, the velvet was temptation, but the contract always trust, All the darkness on the record had a heartbeat under lust, Every track another doorway into sides we rarely show, But beneath every damn chapter there’s one truth I always know: I don’t want some temporary body disappearing with the dawn, I want the one who’s still beside me when the fucking thrill is gone, The one who knows my history and still wants what’s ahead, The one I want beside me when we’re old as fuck in bed. Give me gray hair, give me wrinkles, give me stories we repeat, Give me dancing in the kitchen when we’re seventy-three, Give me photographs reminding us how fucking fast it passed, Give me one more lifetime after this one if they ask. Because temptation gets attention, but commitment built the track, And desire means more when there’s a lifetime at its back, So put your name beside mine—ain’t no reason to subtract, I’ve read every fucking word. Baby, I’m signing the contract. [Final Hook] Give me the contract, Put forever in the fine print, Your name beside mine, That’s the only fucking line I need. No loopholes, no take-backs, No running when the world cracks, If loving you’s the deal— I’m signing that contract. Every pleasure. Every scar. Every fucked-up beautiful chapter Made us who we are. No expiration. No turning back. Your name. My name. Forever. The Contract.
