At the Altar Songtext

At the Altar Songtext
You used to paint pictures, and colour your hair,
Remember the stories we′d share
We used to sing badly, at the piano,
But lately the time isn't there,
′Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
Please give my love to them all.
The further we travelled, the less that we saw,
We'd anchored our feet to the floor,
The more that you say it, it rolls of the tongue,
But it just doesn't chime any more,
′Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
Please give my love to them all,
Give my love to them all.
Maybe our hearts were too young,
Maybe the chase and impatience have won, now,
Maybe our hearts were to numb,
To have recognised it.
′Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
'Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
′Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
Please give my love to them all,
Please give my love to them all,
Please give my love to them all,
Please give my love to them all.
Remember the stories we′d share
We used to sing badly, at the piano,
But lately the time isn't there,
′Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
Please give my love to them all.
The further we travelled, the less that we saw,
We'd anchored our feet to the floor,
The more that you say it, it rolls of the tongue,
But it just doesn't chime any more,
′Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
Please give my love to them all,
Give my love to them all.
Maybe our hearts were too young,
Maybe the chase and impatience have won, now,
Maybe our hearts were to numb,
To have recognised it.
′Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
'Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
′Cause we left our beautiful lives at the altar,
Lost our keys and our looks and our friends,
And made those vows with our toes in the waterfall,
Please give my love to them all,
Please give my love to them all,
Please give my love to them all,
Please give my love to them all.
