Marry Me

 

Someone to bring me out

Someone to let me in

Someone, someone...

And all the eager-beaver men come watch away their blues

They place themselves in place of me and face to face with you

And each pretend, you're loving him but that's not very true

Cause you're not acting, nor am I though I could use some proof

 

Marry me, marry me, what's the story

Though a thousand hungry people try to crash our story

But no one in that darkened world

Need ever know but I know

Marry me

 

A happily-ever-after does that seem to much to ask?

With trees and tots and stucco walls and fountains in the back

And lawns that you or I can mow and neighbours who will chat

About important issues and the state of this 'n that

 

Marry me, marry me, what's the story

Though a thousand hungry people try to crash our story

But no one in that darkened world

Need ever know but I know

 

Marry me

Someone to bring me out

Someone to let me in

 

Someone to bring me joy

Somebody near me

Somebody near me

Somebody nearly me

The purple mountains majesty above the fruited plain

Is peeling off the wall of Lucky's Miramar Motel

 

Marry me, marry me, what's the story

Though a thousand hungry people try to crash our story

But no one in that darkened world

Need ever know but I know

Marry me…

 

Someone to bring me out

Someone to let me in

Someone to bring me joy

Somebody near me

Somebody near me

Somebody nearly me

 

Marry me, marry me, what's the story

Though a thousand hungry people try to crash our story
