 Divorce
I didn't think it was possible
It wasn't ever in my vocabulary
In my future it was only you
You were the only man I wanted to marry

I didn't understand it before
There was no definition to me
I wouldn't believe it was ever in a book
I believed in working on us to stay happy

I have heard it tears families apart
And it's something tough to get through
I have heard it brings out a devilish side
Though I have not ever believed it for me and you

It was something I thought we could fight
A battle we could win
As long as we worked together
I was so sure it wouldn't end

I wanted to beat the odds
To show what others say isn't true
We had so much faith in each other
I believed it was something our love would not come to

You are the only man I wanted
You are my love at first sight
You are the man of my dreams
You always did your best to treat me right

Because of my many mistakes
I am starting to understand the definition
Looking at all the heart break and pain
It hurts to believe you and I are in this position

It's something we tried to stay away from
Now we are letting it win the fight
Though it has come to this
For our love, I don't believe this is right

We may not have a family to tear apart
But I wanted it all and I wanted it with you
Because you and I cannot work on us
I know that this is what we must do

I didn't believe our love would come to this
I didn't believe divorce could win
I thought our love was much stronger than that
I can't believe this is how it will end

It was not in my vocaublary
I found no definition for the word
Though I look into it now
I see that in the end, its going to hurt
