There shouldn't be silence
There shouldn't be lies
There shouldn't be tears
Or strife

What happened?

We use to watch each other happily by the water
We use to laugh together
Kiss wildly with passion just about everywhere

We use to make love
Not just have ***

What happened to the sweetness behind
Your I love yous

Why is there so much struggle
Where there should be simplicity

What happened to the word marriage
Because now it's only said by our ghosts

Why is there so much pretending
That we each have to do now

Can we ever go back
Or will we just crash ashore.
