Lyrics
New Rules (Verse 1)I wrote five rules in the pouring rain,To keep us safe, to hide the pain.No friends, no dating, stay out of sight,I thought they'd keep our future bright.I stood on guard, I built my walls so high,Then you came along and made me wonder why. (Chorus)So open my notebook, take one last look,I'm crossing out the rules in that little book.New Rule One: We make friends,New Rule Two: Let the kisses never end!Look at us now, laughing in the dark,Two elves in a greenhouse, lighting a spark.I laid down my armor when I heard you say "Okay,"And I wouldn't have it any other way! (Verse 2)You slipped off your cord, my earrings came free,And there stood two elves, just you and me.We laughed at our ears as the rain kissed the glass,And watched all our worries drift into the past.My sisters were clapping when I came through the door,I tossed them a pillow; they only cheered more! (Chorus)So open my notebook, take one last look,I'm crossing out the rules in that little book.New Rule One: We make friends,New Rule Two: Let the kisses never end!Look at us now, laughing in the dark,Two elves in a greenhouse, lighting a spark.I laid down my armor when I heard you say "Okay,"And I wouldn't have it any other way! (Bridge)Who knew a green griffin could lead me to you?One foolish mistake, then a world made new.I thought being strong meant closing every door,Now I'm still my true self with room for more! (Final Chorus)So open my notebook, take one last look,I'm crossing out the rules in that little book.New Rule One: We make friends,New Rule Two: Let the kisses never end!The lonely one's laughing, the future feels bright,My sisters are with me, and you're here tonight.I laid down my armor when I heard you say "Okay,"And I wouldn't have it any other way! (Outro Softly Spoken)So open my notebook, take one last look,I'm crossing out the rules in that little book.
