Artist: Thomas Rhett

    Baby last night was hands down

    One of the best nights

    That I’ve had no doubt

    Between the bottle of wine

    And the look in your eyes and the Marvin Gaye

    Then we danced in the dark under September stars in the pourin’ rain

    And I know that I can’t ever tell you enough

    That all I need in this life is your crazy love

    If I never get to see the Northern lights

    Or if I never get to see the Eiffel Tower at night

    Oh if all I got is your hand in my hand

    Baby I could die a happy man

    A happy man, baby, hmm

    Baby and that red dress brings me to my knees

    Oh but that black dress makes it hard to breathe

    Your saint sure got us the cutest, the hottest masterpiece

    It’s too good to be true, nothing better than you

    In my wildest dreams

    ...

    I don’t need no vacation, no fancy destination

    Baby you’re my great escape

    We could stay at home, listen to the radio

    Or dance around the fireplace

    And if I never get to build my mansion in Georgia

    Or drive a sports car up the coast of California

    Well if all I got is your hand in my hand

    Baby I could die a happy man

    Baby I could die a happy man

    Oh, I could die a happy man

    Don’t you know, I could die,

    I could die, I could die a happy man, uh oh hmm

    Background

    This is a song that Thomas Rhett reportedly wrote for his wife of three years Lauren after she jokingly complained he’d never written an epic love song for her. With lyrics that describe his wife in superlatives and how she makes him feel, the chorus ties it all together by explaining that no matter whether he gets to achieve his other goals and dreams, he’ll die a happy man as long as she’s with him.
