"Before The Children Came Along" lyrics - MARTHA WAINWRIGHT

We made love in Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth
Before the dawn
Before the children came along
And made me believe in this song
Only love can tell you how you feel
Nothing else is real

I forgot to tell you just how much I really loved this time
Before we fought across the lines
I thought of leaving but only dream of staying for all, all time
Now that we are forever one

So make believe
Make believe
And set the scene
And set the scene
And kiss me as if it were the first time in your life

And drink the potion
Drink the potion
That will set the notion
Set the notion
That you and I were meant to be together for all time

And don't forget to kiss the baby
On a sunlit day
In the month of May
Oh we're driving
On the highway
Oh forever
Forever
Together
Oh together
