I Do

The day he met Mary
It all fell into place
There was so much love to give
Soon they got married in a chappel nearby
Where they learned how to love and forgive
Be mine forever
to have and to hold
As long as we both shall live my love
And however life unfolds

He tried to become a man
Worked hard got home late
It just earned them a small, gloomy flat
It made him feel guilty as God was his witness
And so were his wife and the cat
And the words forever
To have and to hold
And as long as we both shall live my love
Became painful to uphold
For richer for poorer
For better for worse
The vows started sounding
Like Ezekiels curse

He just couldn't say the words
Hold me
Hold me
And hear her say
I still love you

She just couldn't say the words
Love me
Love me
Or hear him say
Baby I do

Then one night in bed
When he was too restless
About all he felt, but couldn't say
He got out of bed
Put his words in a letter
It told her that he couldn't stay
Cause the words forever
To have and to hold
And as long as we both shall live my love
Are too painful to uphold
He took the van
Drove off
Left Mary the flat
She wanted to leave
But because of the cat

He just couldn't say the words
Hold me
Hold me
And hear her say
I still love you

She just couldn't say the words
Love me
Love me
Or hear him say
Baby I do
I love you
