Ya know sometimes in your life You may find it hurts to be in love Specially when you and the one ya love Already belong to somebody else You're tied to her and I'm tied to him And we don't wanna hurt either one of them That's how it is When you're married but not to each other Ya gotta go home in the middle of the night Try and pretend every things alright But it ain't, no it ain't When you're married but not to each other Make believe that you've been good Give your love to the one you should But you can't, no you can't 'Cause you're tied to her and I'm tied to him We don't wanna hurt either one of them So what can you do, what can you do? When you're married but not to each other Ya gotta be careful everywhere you go Tryin' to avoid everyone you know 'Cause people talk, you know they talk When you're married but not to each other You've gotta make up alibis Hopin' they don't sound like lies 'Cause if you get caught, and ya might get caught Hurry up and love him Hurry up and please him And when it gets right You've got to leave him You better leave him 'Cause you're tied to her, I'm tied to him We don't wanna hurt either one of them That's how it is, that's how it is When you're married But not to each other Hurry up and love him Hurry up and please him And when it gets right You've got to leave him You better leave him
