More

love tailed me as I tripped
I just fell over into love, a beautiful gift
Honesty and sincerity hung it's self at the door
Wills and wants and thoughts I'd never had before

Caught between will and want, feelings poured
wisdom and enlightenment at the brink
I felt as if marriage might help even our score
A ring on your finger might be the missing link

Or a certificate on the wall it all made me think
I wanted to get married again I still wanted more
I wished our love to be among legend and lore
I wanted it to be us straight through to the core
