\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It\u2019s \u00a0A Long Way To Never<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been together a long, long time.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Since being introduced by a friend of mine.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I love living together, just you and me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, there\u2019s so much more I want it to be.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It seems it\u2019s a long way to never.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I know we belong together.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

We are true to one another.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Neither would want any other.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I want to seal it with a ring.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Do you know what I mean?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You avoid the thought like a plague.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You say you want bacon and eggs.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Anything to change the subject.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t you think it will fit our budget?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Are you afraid of the commitment?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It\u2019s time you started to get with it.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

If our love is true, time to tell others.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

We are one till one dies, or the other.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It seems it\u2019s a long way to never.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I know we belong together.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

We are true to one another.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Neither would want any other.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I want to seal it with a ring.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Do you know what I mean?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Maybe it is something that will never be.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I know that you want to be with me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Yet, marriage is something that scares you.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

What do you think it would make me do?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
