The Vows Not Taken
You do not wish to marry me
Oh, how that breaks my heart
But I will stay with you anyway
Better to be with you, than apart
You tell me that you love me
You say you always will
You only want my happiness
Yet you know how I feel
You promise, but yet do not
No ring will I ever wear
And you say you won't change your mind
My heart is still laid bare
I will always love you
Even if I am not your wife
And you know I will be true
For I am yours for life
