Lyrics Don't Get Married Without Me - Punch Brothers

You're right, we're wrong for now
Just bailing water while the ship goes down
When we could float away on separate rafts
To die another day

But it's more than time apart, my love
It's time to handle this without kid gloves
Ripping the Band-Aid off may not be pretty
Least the bleeding's stopped, I think

Let's not fool ourselves
Taking a break is dragging out a breakup too long
Help yourself to whatever you like with whomever you like
But don't get married without me

We lost the battle won
That doesn't mean we can't have any fun
This war's not over yet
We called a truce, no need to get upset

I know you know I still love you
Anyone else is a lateral move at best
And who says I'll be able to move at all
'Til I cozy back up to you this fall but still

Let's not fool ourselves
Taking a break is dragging out a breakup too long
Help yourself to whatever you like with whomever you like
But don't get married without me

Let's not fool ourselves
'Cause we aren't cowards, we aren't liars
We're just two people who are not in love
Right now

Let's not fool ourselves
Taking a break is dragging out a breakup too long
Help yourself to whatever you like with whomever you like
But don't get married without me
