From the album Stories Amidst the Blue
Someone told me that marriages fail because the woman thinks she can change the man and the man thinks the woman will never change.
. . .and a song was born.
Lyrics
They were young in love - and things felt right
So she took him for her husband and he took her for his wife
And he loved her way - and he loved here song
He thought she'd sing the same tune forever (but you know - he was wrong)
Chorus
Why does a good marriage end?
is it 'cause nothing lasts forever?
Or is it just a wonderlust for something new to know?
Do you become exhausted friends
So you make love next-to-never?
Or like a failing flower do you need a larger pot to grow?
Sometimes they'd laugh at dinner - sometimes they'd just stare
She thought he didn't listen (and he though she didn't care)
So some times were hard - some times were tough
Sometimes he though he was pretty damn good (just never good enough)
Chorus
Why does a good marriage end?
is it 'cause nothing lasts forever?
Or is it just a wonderlust for something new to know?
Do you become exhausted friends
So you make love next-to-never?
Or like a failing flower do you need a larger pot to grow?
