SILVER WEDDING DIVORCE

Twenty-five years of marriage, that suddenly went down the drain

Twenty-five years of marriage, never to come back again

Twenty-five years of marriage and twenty-five years of remorse

After twenty-five years of marriage, it’s our silver wedding divorce

The first time you kissed me, you couldn't resist me

You said that your heart was aflame

But today is tomorrow, with yesterdays sorrow

And you can’t remember my name

Now the years have grown older and our love has grown colder

And my life just won’t be quite the same

For the last time you kissed me, you learned how to resist me

But when will you kiss me again?

Twenty-five years of marriage, that suddenly went down the drain

Twenty-five years of marriage, never to come back again

Twenty-five years of marriage and twenty-five years of remorse

After twenty-five years of marriage, it’s our silver wedding divorce

The last time you told me, you wanted to hold me

You said that you wanted to cry

You heard a sad love song, ’bout a romance that went wrong

And then the first tear filled your eye

But those moments together, have been stolen forever

And tomorrow is just one more day

For today you rely on, another shoulder to cry on

Since the other man took you away

Twenty-five years of marriage, that suddenly went down the drain

Twenty-five years of marriage, never to come back again

Twenty-five years of marriage and twenty-five years of remorse

After twenty-five years of marriage, it’s our silver wedding divorce
