You can't explain what you've done
Although you say that you forgot
We had to get drunk
On sun and fun and rum
While Jesus kept a watch

And it's getting harder and harder to lie
You just wanted to have a good time
And when he asks you, you don't reply

You grew up in a house of giggles
Laughter was the only currency
He wants to give you everything
But only I can give you what you need

I wasn't meant to die for you
You were just there to pass the time
And you don't see your beauty
But I feel it deep inside
I wasn't meant to die for you
You were just there to pass the time
But if dreams are real things
I've married you ten thousand times

All was white, I was sleeping
You draped your arm across my chest
You kicked me hard, and I don't mind
But girl I need my rest
