lyrics

The first time I decided to get married
I planned out the whole entire thing
I would dress my best
She’d wear a summer dress
I’d hire James Taylor to sing

And the service would be at Hogwarts
With Dumbledore presiding
And Dino from The Flintstones would bear the ring
And Paul & Eddy’s Pizza would do the catering

And I was maybe eight years old
The third grade teacher’s son
But if Dumbledore had asked me if I did,
I would’ve done.

The last time I decided to get married
I didn’t want to, and neither did she
When we could lie instead
In that dorm room bed
With “How I Met Your Mother,” season three

And at night we could order in
From Paul & Eddy’s pizza
They’re on Seamless now; the first time’s free
And there’d be nothing else, except for her and me.

And I was maybe eighteen years old
My journey just begun
But if she’d asked me to drop everything and stay
I would’ve done

If I ever do decide to get married
I wanna be bound like a kite on a string:
Grounded in the life
Of a husband and wife
With kids, with bills, with love, with recycling

While flying far and wide
To see who’d ever have me
Play guitar and sing
And hope that time and patience see to everything.

But twenty years from now,
Will that be a pipe dream too?
And how old will I be before I know
What should I do?

I’ll get older, and I’ll get wiser,
But the question follows me:
How do you tell dreams apart from fantasy?
Yeah, how do you tell dreams apart from fantasy?
