In a long white gown in the pouring rain
She had a change of heart on her wedding day
She said I am just not ready babe
To change my name and to lose my freedom
He was at a loss for words and a reason
But then he smiled and said that's OK
(Chorus)
When it's love when it's love
There's nowhere else you'd rather be yeah
When it's love when it's love
You will know it and
Believe cuz when it's love
It sets you free
She went looking for a home and security
A Mercedes-Benz and a shady tree
And a house full of roses
Her husband's not every woman's dream
She traded her passion for the finer things
And she feels empty
(Chorus)
They spent their lives living week to week
The smell of morning coffee
The sound of tiny feet
And their life was beautiful
She was a waitress and he pumped gas
And they were unaware
Of all they didn't have
They thought they had everything
They had everything
