But will she write him a love song?

Sara Bareilles announced on New Year’s Day that she is engaged to Joe Tippett after six years of dating.

“Yes to marrying this man. It’s an easy, earned, relaxed YES,” the “Love Song” singer wrote on Instagram Sunday alongside a selfie of the couple smiling at each other while she showed off a gold leaf-shaped ring on her left hand.

Bareilles, 43, shared that Tippett, 40, is “exactly” who she wants to spend the rest of her life with, adding, “The more I know you the more I know I love you…and you have introduced me to parts of myself I was afraid to love. And now I love ME more because of you. So really this is all about me. Just kidding.”

The Grammy winner concluded her post, “What a gift you are. Let the games begin. Onward into absolutely everything with you.”
