Terrible Things |
By the time I was your age, I’d give anything |
To fall in love truly, was all I could think |
That’s when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams |
The most beautiful woman, that I’d ever seen |
She said, «Boy can I tell you a wonderful thing? |
I can’t help but notice, you’re staring at me |
I know I shouldn’t say this, but I really believe |
I can tell by your eyes that you’re in love with me.» |
Now, son, I’m only telling you this |
Because life can do terrible things |
Now, most of the time we’d have too much to drink |
And we’d laugh at the stars and we’d share everything |
Too young to notice, and too dumb to care |
Love was a story that couldn’t compare |
I said, «Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing? |
I made you a present with paper and string |
Open with care now, I’m asking you, please |
You know that I love you, will you marry me?» |
Now, son, I’m only telling you this |
Because life can do terrible things |
You’ll learn, one day, I’ll hope and I’ll pray |
That God shows you differently |
She said, «Boy can I tell you a terrible thing? |
It seems that I’m sick and I’ve only got weeks |
Please, don’t be sad now, I really believe |
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me.» |
Slow, so slow I fell to the ground on my knees |
So don’t fall in love, there’s just too much to lose |
If you’re given the choice, then I beg you to choose |
To walk away, walk away, don’t let her get you |
I can’t bear to see the same happen to you |
Now, son, I’m only telling you this |
Because life can do terrible things |
