Get ready Marie, get ready Marie Get ready for dreams to come true Get ready Marie, get ready for me There’s so many things we can do She was a pretty good looking young girl And she kissed me in such a way But to get anything, she said show me the ring

To court and spark Love came to my door With a sleeping roll And a madman's soul He thought for sure I'd seen him Dancing up a river in the dark Looking for a woman He was playing on the sidewalk For passing change

And I'm not the one But I wish, but I wish I was I'm not the hero in the story I'm not the girl that gets the glory 'Cause you're looking for true love Hmm, I wish, oh I wish I was On paper we go together I know that we look the part But almost never

I didn't know what to say I never wanted to see you walk away Are you looking for love? (Are you looking for love?) Once I thought that life was easy I thought love would be enough Now I can't believe I'm on my own I'm leaving on a jet plane I'll wait in

I'm looking right at the other half of me The vacancy that sat in my heart Is a space that now you hold Show me how to fight for now And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy Coming back into you once I figured it out You were right here all along It's like

Somethin' 'bout the pain mixed with you Drinking, smoking, doses, potions Drinking, smoking, doses, emotions Got me doing things I ain't do, right Got me doing things I ain't do, right, true Cheap shot, caught me when I wasn't looking for you Why are you
