You Will Marry The Wrong Person

(You) You will marry the wrong person
You can't freeze happiness
Oh, the golden moments, they will be gone
See the first problem is that we don't quite understand ourselves
And if we can't do that how will we get others?
And moreover how will we choose our lovers?
We're all quite mad
And the normal ones are the ones we don't know very well
Maybe when we're on our first date don't ask for my favourite band
Ask me how I am mad
Mad like you
You will marry the wrong person
Single life is hard
Lonely Saturday nights and all the nights
So we do funny things to escape
Like settling for something before is all too late
Groping in the dark, inventing sparks, inventing you
Maybe your instincts are all wrong
And who can ever know if these funny feelings
Will go on, and on, and on
You won't be the first to be charmed by heavenly song
Moment, eyes, times, words, mood, face, gone
When time reveals all that is true
You will marry the wrong person
Are we seeking happiness
Or just a familiar wolrd we miss?
Are we just the birds of the nest?
The love we learnt as kids was darker than you think
Born out of a complex indelible ink, there's a good chance
You'll reject the right one
No one tells you how it is
Sends you off with love degrees
All we get are those birds and bees
If you are not taught to drive
You'll probably going to crash the car
And we are taught nothing of love
Taught nothing of love
And that's why you will marry the wrong person
