"The Divorce Song" lyrics

We said 'til 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 'til death do us part
'Til we knew our hearts had already died

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

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

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

We may have left our run too late
And walked down the isle too soon
But not everything, has a forever ring
We sure ain't no Johnny and June

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
We'd never survive as the marrying kind
But we do divorce pretty good
