Well there was a little falter at the altar of confession

Down on its knees true love did fall

After 31 days of sleepless nights, she woke up to end it all

With "I love you" on a fresh tattoo engraved upon his chest

She tore her name right off his heart

So here’s to the unblessed



Oh love, oh love you fickle thing

Such pretty words and golden rings

It was a broken dream right from the start

Bless their tortured, tangled hearts



Well a blast of confusion coupled with delusion

Makes the best made plans sometimes fail

They wined and they dined, had peace of mind

She bought a gown and he rented tails

But the mighty cloud of destiny came driftin' through the gates

And busted up what could have been a perfect, hopeless case



Oh love, oh love you fickle thing

Such pretty words and golden rings

It was a broken dream right from the start

Bless their tortured, tangled hearts



Oh love, oh love you fickle thing

Such pretty words and golden rings

It was a broken dream right from the start

Bless their tortured, tangled hearts
