Marriage
 

Marriage

Crashing like waves on the shoreline
Your heart head-first into mine
Out for blood, revenge, well it’s fine
A perfect waste of borrowed time

Something new and something borrowed
This veil, these vows, and all my sorrow
Today is dying just like tomorrow
You lead me on, of course I followed

I thought love was ever eternal
I thought you could teach me
Thought I could give without question
And if I started to fall away
I thought that you could reach me
I thought that you could reach me

Forgive me for all my daydreams
Quiet my matrimonial screams
And never wonder what life means
A sequence of unrelated scenes

Something new and something borrowed
This veil, these vows, and all my sorrow
Today is dying just like tomorrow
You lead me on, of course I followed

I thought love was ever eternal
I thought you could teach me
Thought I could give without question
And if I started to fall away
I thought that you could reach me
I thought that you could reach me

Oh, what would the children say
Maybe I learned the wrong way
Oh, what would the children say
My lessons, how they betray
Oh, what would the children say
May I learned the wrong way
Oh, what would the children say
My lessons, how they betray

I thought love was ever eternal
I thought you could teach me
Thought I could give without question
And if I started to fall away
I thought that you could reach me
I thought that you could reach me

Something new and something borrowed
This veil, these vows, and all my sorrow
Today is dying just like tomorrow
