about

A narrative tune about a finding the right person after finding the wrong one.

lyrics

The most ancient of institutions, entered at a tender age
When the odyssey seems like a leaflet 'cause you've only read one page.

And so it goes she came to curse the quaint little life they've made
wondering how those before them so easily all stayed.

Mad lips as they kissed, watching themselves defined.
If you can't fall in love might as well fall in love.
So smile through your disappointment and you'll be fine.

The least painful of all solutions, move in with your college friends.
So finally they both could surface and do so without the bends.

They realized that they pricked a spindle and slumbered for for too long.
So how about that old first love rekindle and right the wrong?

Could it be the nimble hands that first shook back when they were ten?
Without the mask of puppy love fit even better now than then.

Mad Lips as they kissed, waking old butterflies.
Old generations still gaze with teenage eyes.
This blessing was worth living through its disguise.
So smile for what disappointment lead you to find.
