Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We said, "Till death do us part," but death didn't come quick enough
Maybe we did it all wrong, kinda fucked everything up
The promises turned into prisons on either side of the divide
It was "Till death do us part" till we knew our hearts had already died
[Chorus]
It's a long road to get to the gold
Made it through paper and wood
Couldn't survive as the marrying kind
But we do divorce pretty good
[Verse 2]
Just like a long vacation, I left with a few souvenirs
That I wouldn't trade for the world, and I couldn't buy with my tears
More than I had ever wanted, just one little pink and one blue
If I wasted most of my best years, I'm glad they were wasted with you
[Chorus]
It's a long road to get to the gold
We made it through paper and wood
We couldn't survive as the marrying kind
But we do divorce pretty good
[Bridge]
We may have left our run too late
Walked down the isle too soon
But not everything has a forever ring
We sure ain't no Johnny and June
[Chorus]
It's a long road to get to the gold
We made it through paper and wood
Couldn't survive as the marrying kind
But we do divorce pretty good
We'd never survive as the marrying kind
But we do divorce pretty good
