Don’t Get Married When I’m Gone Lyrics by Carlile

Human Human

[Verse 1]
What did you say when you were laying behind me?
Said that my lines looked something like a painting
The way you wrapped your arms around my booty
Was nothing short of spiritual and moving
Oh, I thought the light inside of me was taken
But then you came around to reawaken
When I was busy wrapped up in my grieving
You brought a little magic to believe in
[Chorus]
Don't go getting married while I'm gone
I'll be coming back before too long
I'm not trying to go and make you mine (Don't go getting married, don't go getting married, married)
I just want to hold you one more time (Don't go getting married, don't go getting married, married)
[Verse 2]
I didn't have the words to really thank you
I hope I get the chance, 'cause you're an angel
Just want to take some time to show you're worth it
But if you find the one, you sure deserve it
Oh, I might be gone, but don't you go forgetting
The day we spent all tangled in your bedding
Thank God she's got a wicked sense of humor
Right as I shut the door, there you were
[Chorus]
Don't go getting married while I'm gone
I'll be coming back before too long
I'm not trying to go and make you mine (Don't go getting married, don't go getting married, married)
I just want to hold you one more time (Don't go getting married, don't go getting married, married)
[Outro]
Don't go getting married while I'm gone
I'll be coming back before too long (Before too long)
I'm not trying to go and make you mine (I really wanna hold you, I really wanna hold you)
I just want to hold you one more time (Don't go getting married, don't go getting married, married)
