When you marry you will change
Said the woman to the man
When I marry I will change you
Said the woman to the man
So they married and were happy
They were happy for a time
Still they thought about each other all the time
When I marry I will be you
Said the woman to the man
When you marry you will be someone
Said the woman to the man
So they married and were someone
They were someone for a time
Still they thought about each other all the time
When you leave me you′ll be sorry
Said the woman to the man
When you leave me I will haunt you
Said the woman to the man
So he left her and was haunted
They were haunted for a time
Still they thought about each other all the time
When I left him I was happy
Said the woman to the child
When I left him I was happy
Said the woman to her child
So I left him and was happy
I was happy with his child
You won't know him when you meet him
Said the woman to the child
You won′t know him if you meet him
Said the woman to the child
But he met him and said father
You were father for a time
I just wondered who you were in your mind
Well I told you he's your father
Said the woman to the child
Well I knew it you would love him
Said the woman to her child
And I loved him and I loved him
And was happy with our child
What was it that made you treat us so unkind?
What's the problem why you crying
Said the woman to the man
He′s your father he′s your father
Said the woman to her son
He's the problem he′s my father
He was father for a time
When I die I'll be with him
Said the mother to her son
When I die you′ll forgive me
Said the woman to the man
So she did die and was buried
Buried with him for all time
When I love you we will marry
Said the woman to the man
And our children will have children
Said the woman to the man
So they married and had children
They had children for all time
