Lyrics Martha Wainwright

Martha Wainwright

Before the Children Came Along

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
