The Wedding — текст песни (Marianne Faithfull)

"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 youll 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 youll 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 wont know him when you meet him,"

Said the woman to the child.

"you wont 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 my mind."



"well, I told you hes 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 ?



"whats the problem, why re you crying ? "

Said the woman to the man.

"hes your father, hes your father,"

Said the woman to her son.

"hes the problem, hes my father,

He was father for a time."



"when I die Ill be with him,"

Said the woman to her son.

"when I die youll forgive me,"

Said the woman to the man.

So she did 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.
