lyrics

Turns out the rumor going round this town, is really true
The Wisemans called it quits out of the blue, and split for good
David found Lyn out there by the pond going at it with Mr Wood
I told David you tried your best, you did all you could

I heard the Wilsons had a fight last night, outside the bar
Eve caught Sam with Sally in a car, he's quite the cheat
They were yelling pretty loud, and throwing punches, right there in the street
Then Eve went home, threw out the bed and burned all her sheets

These days a happy marriage is rare
A long one a thing of the past
So keep telling me again and again
And again and again
How our love is gonna last
How our love is gonna last
How our love is gonna last
How's our love gonna last?

It seems people all around us they're all breakin up
no one ever so much as bats an eye
Everyone just expects it nowadays
Nobody notices or even acts surprised

These days a happy marriage is rare
And a long one a thing of the past
So keep telling me again and again
And again and again
How our love is gonna last
How our love is gonna last
How our love is gonna last
How's our love gonna last?
