To Have and To Hold

To have and to hold
Your Love's grown cold
In sickness and in health
'Cuz there was never any wealth
Why do we even try
Why do we even try

All it is is heart break
Only a momentary Love shake
Faking every cuddle and kiss
Missing the things we didnt want to miss
Too young, too old
That's the age old fold
Our lives going down in a spin
Is this where we were meant to begin

To have and to hold
Your Love's grown cold
In sickness and in health"
'Cuz there was never any wealth
Why do we even try
Why do we even try

Cant help someone who doesnt want help
Cant cure someone who doesnt want to be cured
Cant revive someone who doesnt want to live

Your life is alone, your life is alone, your life is alone, your life is alone, your life is 
alone

You are empty

To have and [NOT] to hold
Your Loves grown cold
In sickness[ALWAYS] and in health
'Cuz there was never any wealth
[GOD] Why do we even try
Why do we even try[GOD]
