lyrics

In the good old way back when
We were bestest friends
I liked you 'cause your eyes were daydream blue
When the bigger kids bullied me
You'd say, "Hey, that's not funny,"
And I always thought I'd marry you

You said living in the now
Is the only way that you know how
To look ahead is such a scary view
And in spite of this, I pined
Now I only look behind
'Cause I always thought I'd marry you

You used to make me laugh
You're a photograph
You, my better half
And I know you love me too

I find it hard to tell
If I believe in magic spells
But we shared a bond like Ron and Harry do
I mean, of all the people I know it's
You who to me are closest
And I always thought I'd marry you

When we got drunk and rash
And time came to leave the bash
We promised that our passion would carry through
I never felt more right
Than I did that fucked up night
And I always thought I'd marry you

Special one
You make loving fun
You, my life's reason
And I know you love me too

I can tell you're not impressed
Yes, maybe I'm obsessed
But let's make sure we put blame where blame is due
It's not your fault I cry
It's just that, for some reason, I
Always thought I'd marry you

All my life
You would end my strife
You will be my wife
And I know you love me too
