Marriage Lyrics by The View

Ropewalk

2015

[Verse 1: Kyle Falconer]
I would love to see you gone
I would love to see you somewhere that's not everywhere
Don't make my talents feel so strong
But you find a spanner in the works
Promised would know the way
With a compass full of rust and broken company
Jelly gloves are super new
Makes me thinks of mountains out the–
[Pre-Chorus]
Think of the world, it's time to hold your hand
You're not the girl but the only girl that understands
[Chorus]
Something old
Something new
Something borrowed
And something blue
And I won't live for all you do
'Cause I'm not old and I'm not blue
And I'm that something new
[Verse 2]
Leave me with your Paris life
Don't leave in the moment picking up your fight
We'd born in purgatory
Leave yourself to swallow in the sea
[Pre-Chorus]
Think of the world, it's time to hold your hand
You're not the girl but the only girl that understands
[Chorus]
Something old
Something new
Something borrowed
And something blue
And I won't live for all you do
'Cause I'm not old and I'm not blue
[Verse 3]
You're so pretty you don't have to turn the stove on
You walk into the room and the water would start to boil
You're so pretty you don't have to keep your clothes on
So don't think of me as a prison
More like a fish tank with no water in
[Chorus]
Something old
Something new
Something borrowed
And something blue
And I won't live for all you do
'Cause I'm not old and I'm not blue
Something old
Something new
Something borrowed
And something blue
And I won't live for all you do
'Cause I'm not old and I'm not blue
And I'm that something new
[Outro]
Oh, and I won't live
Oh, and I won't live
No I won't live
Oh, and I won't live
Oh, and I won't live
Oh, and I won't live
