Don’t Marry the One You Love

Nothing like true love to make you lose your belief in it
While you're out somewhere else upon making an exit
I imagine friends saying I'm too good for you, but
Even in my head I convince them it's not true
And this time it's me that will be beached on the shore
Don't marry the one you love it'll only hurt more

My friend at work she married a man
She was never in love with but they still had two children
She was in love once and she couldn't bear the pain
She never wanted to feel the jealousy again
Now I understand the road she's on
Don't marry the one you love it'll make you a bad person

Chorus

The dogs get bored when you're not at home dear
THey unsettled and grumpy and they groan in their sleep
I lie here while they kick me in the back
We're all waiting for the sound of your key in the latch
I was cool 'bout being alone tonight but now I take it back
Don't marry the one you love you'll turn into a doormat

They next day I walk through the park
Straight across the green
?d for the paths and roam in the trees
I take take off my glove to scratch my lip
Some things can only be done with a monkey's grip
I want to run but I'm stuck to your hip
I married the one I love and sometimes I regret it
