Marry Me Lyrics

Marry Me lyrics

I felt a love of such deafening weight

Dangling from a balustrade of shilly-shally

Overlooking infinity and this ecstasy of you lying next to me

And in a peculiar way you clutched me

By the shoulder, said, "Boy I barely know you

But would you marry me?"



We were floating about with our heads in the clouds

And stealing those words from my mouth

You whispered in my ear

Exactly what I wanted to hear



Composed a note of such jubilant things

And placed it between bed and spring

Of a hostile hostel overrun with shedding towelettes

And Mexican maids and with indefinite fate

I clutched you by the shoulder said, "Girl, I barely know you

But would you marry me?"



We were floating about with our heads in the clouds

And stealing those words from my mouth

You whispered in my ear

Exactly what I wanted to hear

Exactly what I wanted to hear

Exactly what I wanted to hear
