Though I used to think marriage was a dreamer’s religionnMy heart is dancing like a string of cansnSo if you accept and if you can spare me a lifetimenWe can hold forever in our handsnCause you can’t rely on someone elsennIn a million hoursnWill the love song fade into silence?nWill the tears of rapture dry away?nThough I have no doubt that you are my once in a lifelinenIn between the black and white is greynIn some things you don’t have a second chancennOnce upon a timenVows were spoken never brokennPeople say that never happensnThough I know you’re minenWho can say that time won’t change usnPeople say we’ll never be the samennThere have been some timesnWhen the effort shadowed the comfortnAnd I felt like throwing it awaynBut despite those burning eyesnAnd despite the words that we torturednI never had a single lonely daynYou can’t rely on someone else
