I woke up this morning Feeling a little groggy The ethanol hadn't quite worn off My darlin' had woke up Three times as early I knew somethin' was amiss She walked in, got on her knees And asked me to marry As a single tear rolled From her eye Flattered and stuck up I paid her no mind And dozed off, and she began to cry Why couldn't I have changed my mind I told her that I love her forever It's only a lifetime together Just until the day that we die Scared, she convinced herself We'd fallen in love I made plans to skip out of town And I left her, stranded In the place she didn't know But I promised not to let her drown I couldn't have changed my mind Told her I love her forever It's only a lifetime together Just until the day that we die Just until the day that we die Just until the day that we die
