Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't think I lied when I said I wanted that life
Maybe I was too young to understand what I wanted to begin with
But babe, it was true, with all that I knew
It felt like forever, that December too
A fairytale start, crossing our hearts
Rode off in a car that said, "Just Married"
[Chorus]
But I wasn't made for fixing a plate, or keeping our problems buried
I wasn't strong enough to keep on, with all of the weight that I carried
Yeah, it was love
Then it was just, married
[Verse 2]
Long distance texts, make-up-for-time sex
Tired of asking when I'll see you next
I'm too mad to fight, so I stare and cry
The picture of you and me wearing white
Just married
Just married
[Chorus]
But I wasn't made for fixing a plate, or keeping our problems buried
I wasn't made, fixing a plate
No, I wasn't strong enough to hold on with all of the weight that I carried
I wasn't strong enough to hold on
Yeah, it was love
Then it was just, married
[Bridge]
It was a beautiful wedding
Sometimes I still taste the Veuve
And dammit, I wish I wasn't this ready
To undo "I do"
[Chorus]
But I wasn't made for fixing a plate, and getting divorced sounds scary
But I'm just not strong enough to hold on with all of the weight that I carried
Yeah, it was love
It really was
Then it was just, married
