I understand you needing
|
And wanting is no crime
|
But I can't help feeling
|
That you and your mother are just wasting your time
|
|
Choosing Saturdays in Summer
|
I dare you to wear white
|
Love is just a moment of giving
|
And marriage is when we admit our parents were right
|
|
I just don't understand it
|
What makes our love a sin
|
How can it make that difference
|
If you and I are wearing that bloody, bloody ring
|
|
If I share my bed with you
|
Must I also share my life
|
Love is just a moment of giving
|
And marriage is when we admit our parents were right
|
|
You just don't understnd it
|
This tender trap we're in
|
Those glossy catalogues of couples
|
Are cashing in on happiness again and again
|
|
So drag me to the altar
|
And I'll make my sacrifice
|
Love is just a moment of giving
|
And marriage is when we admit our parents were right
|
And marriage is when we admit our parents were probably right
|
