marriage - marques houston

[Intro]
I know you said "You're Ready", but I'm not ready
See marriage don't change, nothing but your name
Unless it's real love, through the sunshine and the rain
For better or for worse, girl this is not a game
See marriage don't change, nothing but your name

[Verse One]
Now I've been trying to make you understand
That I'm proud to be with you and I'm happy I'm your man
I know your moms and your pops wanna see you walking down that aisle asking what's up
'Cause it's been awhile, 'bout seven years now
We've been together baby, but girl I'm still not ready
Take it easy don't push me away, don't want to make a mistake
I wanna do thing right and my paper right
Wanna be 100% is with you, I wanna spend my life

[Chorus]
Marriage don't change, nothing but your name
Unless it's real love, through the sunshine and the rain
For better or for worse, girl this is not a game
See marriage don't change, nothing but your name

Marriage don't change, nothing but your name
Unless it's real love, through the joy and through the pain
It's more than a ceremony, more than a wedding ring
A marriage won't change, nothing but your name

[Verse Two]
Ever since you caught that bouquet at your friends wedding day
I've been under pressure babe (I've been under pressure girl)
Now you window shop for wedding gowns and wedding bands,
Pickin' out your bridemaids and the theme song for the reception,

I know you love me baby, but girl I'm still not ready
It's so many thing's such you don't know about me
Even though we've been together for so long
We got a long way to go, so girl lets take it slow

[Chorus]

[Break down]
It's not that I can't see myself a life with you
Girl I aint going nowhere, lets take our time
This ain't something that you just jump into
And marriage don't change no

[Chorus]

[Outro]
See marriage don't change, nothing but your name
Unless it's real love, through the sunshine and the rain
For better or for worse, girl this is not a game
See marriage don't change, nothing but your name
