Once a day the naive say
I cant wait for my wedding day
They make their vows and give a ring
While some dance, others sing
The night will end when lovers bed
While the dreams of the future cloud their head
They wake in a daze of happily ever after
They start their days with love and laughter
As the days progress the nerves wear thin
Is that you, I have to nurture again
I'm beginning to feel used and neglected
You feel as you are already rejected
A sense of resentment builds inside
And to those vows you wont abide
Selfishness rears it's dreary head
And soon you'll find your love is dead
How can sweet love end so tragic
The naive think its full of magic
How do we avoid this disturbing truth
Pay attention to elders in our youth
See their patience, love & tact
Notice their manners, matter of fact
So forget your lows and forgive the lies
Focus on true love and compromise
Look into those eyes that once melted your heart
And vow again to never part
For one day, young new lovers will dawn
And how will they mimic old love if it's gone?
