"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 "She Used To Be Mine" singer continued. "What a gift you are. Let the games begin," she concluded. "Onward into absolutely everything with you."
Many of the couple's friends and fans posted congratulatory messages in the comments section.

Tippett also shared the exciting news on his Instagram page Monday.
"I'm going to marry this woman," the "Mare of Easttown" actor captioned a photo of the "King of Anything" singer looking up at the sky. "Looking ahead to all of the tomorrows, all the adventures, the laughs, and all of the love. Thank you my heart."
Bareilles wrote in the comments section, "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee we're doing it!"
Before this, Tippett celebrated seven years of sobriety with another Instagram post. "Seven years without a drink," he wrote.
Bareilles and Tippett met in 2015 during an out-of-town staging of the musical "Waitress" at the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Though the pair starred in the musical at separate times, they fell in love and began dating in September 2016. They made public appearances as a couple during several Broadway red carpet events the same year and also at the 71st Annual Tony Awards in June 2017.
