paroles de chanson Terrible Things - Mayday Parade

By the time I was your age I'd give anything
To fall in love truly was all I could think
That's when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams
The most beautiful woman that I'd ever seen

She said, "Boy, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I can't help but notice you staring at me
I know I shouldn't say this but I really believe
I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me"

Now son, I'm only telling you this because life
Can do terrible things

Now most of the time we'd have too much to drink
We'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything
Too young to notice and too dumb to care
Love was a story that couldn't compare

I said, "Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I made you a present with paper and string
Open with care now, I'm asking you please
You know that I love you, will you marry me?"

Now son, I'm only telling you this because life
Can do terrible things
You'll learn one day, I hope and I pray that God
Shows you differently

She said, "Boy, can I tell you a terrible thing?
It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks
Please don't be sad now, I really believe
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me"

Slow, so slow
I fell to the ground
On my knees
So don't fall in love, there's just too much to lose
If you're given the choice then I beg you choose
To walk away, walk away
Don't let her get you
I can't bare to see the same thing happen to you

Now son, I'm only telling you this because life
Can do terrible things
