a marriage made in heaven

she fell in love with my singing

she knew the bells started ringing

she thought there was only her there

but

me

i just live for the clapping

a hand delivery of an invite to my premiere

when he fell in love

i was acting

i sent her flowers

asked her to marry me

but all i heard was their clapping

now she cries with a cigarrette at the window

he croons and moans like he's hurting

she cries so well

he croons and moans

just croons and moans

now

i never thought she needed direction

and he was at the mercy of his writers

for the songs i needed to touch her

those sad

sad songs to make me happy

now she cries with a cigarette at the window

he croons and moans like he's hurting

she cries so well

he croons and moans

just croons and moans

we re-enact the love scenes from her/my movies

but i never thought

but she uses a stand-in

his voice is croakier every day now

and she cries so well
