Maire is feeling so happy now
So sure of what she has got
Turns and looks at her lover
When will we tie the knot?
John's the man of her dreams
From the age of seventeen
But he's no longer certain
But he's no longer sure

Chorus - It took two years
It took two years for the making
Then just one day
Then just one day for the breaking
Maire I don't love you

John is feeling so sick now
Indecisions set in
Maire once was his true love
Now he's guilty as sin
Doesn't want to go to the altar
Doesn't want to have to get married
Maire tells him she's pregnant
What a mess he is in

Chorus

Is he going to marry out of conscience?
Is he going to marry out of fear?
Is he going to make all the wrong mistakes?
Then watch his life disappear?

Chorus
