With a baby on the way, and a ring on your hand
These are legitimate grown-up plans
I have to admit I feel it too when I see those tiny fingernails
A house in the 'burbs and two cars out front
A cat and a dog and a jolly jumper

When you fell in love, I adored all her letters
pinned to your bulletin board
All the photobooth proof of something so deeply good
Why wait, if you've found your mate
and you're bound to make a deadline
the day that you die

Please when we're old
can we drink on the beach
dance in the shallow waves
and cut our feet
