Mister Loveless - Her Parents lyrics

We stood in Your parent's kitchen They closely watched And listened For unchristian behavior I phoned twice I missed you both times I stopped by Your Father said, “nice try.” Your parents were married To some strange story About how the world began And how the world will end They required me to believe with them If they only knew What I had to say to you Would not have judged Like the good book says not to Your parents were married To some strange story That I had this big plan To steal you away from them They got in the way Never had my chance to say… I can't bear to lose you I am on my knees The whole world is changing Please don't change on me I can tell you secrets I can share stories I am far from perfect But I'm closest when you're beside me…
