Babe, I try, but I can never tell
If we'll be, or if we won't
If it was up to me, I'd send our doubts to hell
And make I do's of these I don'ts
And then we'd walk together side by side
Just you and me forever satisfied
But as it stands, such visions cease at that
Dreams, ideals, and vacant truths
So I kiss you quick, put on my coat and hat
And just like that, our lovin's through
Until the thought of you again ignites
My heart and mind and all of my desire
This us I swore was new we've always been
Cause when we end, then we somehow we begin again
Oh, let's make a home together
You make a man out of me
Nothing on earth can sever
The bond of holy matrimony
Yeah with roses on the satin, in everlasting grasp it begins
As the wedding bells diminish, new life kicks and swells from within
These things I ache and yearn for, I hope and long and burn for to be
Though the end is plain to make out, for everything I'm worth I can't see
See the means...
So babe, let's quit our cycle one last time
A final split, once and for all
And you'll drift on your way, and I will drift on mine
No longer up against the wall
Unless the stars should one day show a sign
And love should make our crooked fates align
This us I swore was new we've always been
Cause when we end, then we somehow we begin again
