Someone to bring me out
   Someone to let me in
   Someone, someone...
  
   And all the eager-beaver men come watch away their blues
   They place themselves in place of me and face to face with you
   And each pretend, you're loving him but that's not very true
   Cause you're not acting, nor am I though I could use some proof
  
   Marry me, marry me, what's the story
   Though a thousand hungry people try to crash our story
   But no one in that darkened world
   Need ever know but I know
   Marry me
  
   A happily-ever-after does that seem to much to ask?
   With trees and tots and stucco walls and fountains in the back
   And lawns that you or I can mow and neighbours who will chat
   About important issues and the state of this 'n that
  
   Marry me, marry me, what's the story
   Though a thousand hungry people try to crash our story
   But no one in that darkened world
   Need ever know but I know
   Marry me
  
   Someone to bring me out
   Someone to let me in
   Someone to bring me joy
   Somebody near me Somebody near me
   Somebody nearly me
  
   The purple mountains majesty above the fruited plain
   Is peeling off the wall of Lucky's Miramar Motel
  
   Marry me, marry me, what's the story
   Though a thousand hungry people try to crash our story
   But no one in that darkened world
   Need ever know but I know
   Marry me ..
  
   Someone to bring me out
   Someone to let me in
   Someone to bring me joy
   Somebody near me
   Somebody near me
   Somebody nearly me
  
   Marry me, marry me, what's the story
   Though a thousand hungry people try to crash our story
