All Thieves - Pity The Lovers lyrics

Like wedding guests all leaving, full up and tied, Warmed by another grand attempt at love But also a little deflated at the end, For love rarely ascends to the height of those vows So you could think as you begin your long journey back, To a life where love does not rule Maybe worries and money and the kids up too early Are the things that do instead Of course love has its place, but who are they kidding? Marrying today, they can't last As you drive back you discuss it with your wife And begin to feel better again You will last, you after all are best friends, You after all still have s**, let's never argue again you say.. She, half asleep, puts her hand on your leg, And you think of your own wedding day And the speech that you made, some of it still holds true, That's the higher part of you, We will last
