Terrible Things
By the time I was your age I'd give anything
- By the time I was your age I'd give anything
- To fall in love truly was all I could think
- That's when I met your mother the girl of my dreams
- The most beautiful woman that I'd ever seen
- She said "Boy can I tell you a wonderful thing
- I can't help but notice you're staring at me
- I know I shouldn't say this but I really believe
- I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me "
- Now son I'm only telling you this
- Because life can do terrible things
- Now most of the time we'd have too much to drink
- And we'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything
- Too young to notice and too dumb to care
- Love was a story that couldn't compare
- I said "Girl can I tell you a wonderful thing
- I made you a present with paper and string
- Open with care now I'm asking you please
- You know that I love you will you marry me "
- Now son I'm only telling you this
- Because life can do terrible things
- You'll learn one day I'll hope and I'll pray
- That God shows you differently
- She said "Boy can I tell you a terrible thing
- It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks
- Please don't be sad now I really believe
- You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me "
- Slow so slow I fell to the ground on my knees
- So don't fall in love there's just too much to lose
- If you're given the choice then I beg you to choose
- To walk away walk away don't let her get you
- I can't bear to see the same happen to you
- Now son I'm only telling you this
- Because life can do terrible things
