It was never that simple
Your mind is a temple
And romance breaks it down
It leaves you feeling like a clown

What’s the point, you ask
I ask myself the same question
Romance is a momentous task
And a rather lofty decision

But while you’re laying on your deathbed
And you’re thinking about the entire past
You will regret the things you never said
And then you will breathe your last
