The Marxmen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The story of my life
I'll tell about the night we met
And how my heart can't forget
The way you smiled at me.
I want the world to know
The story of my life
And that first exciting time
I held you close to me.
The sorrow in our love was breakin' up
The mem'ry of a broken heart
But later on, the joy of makin' up
Never never more to part.
There's one thing left to do
Before my story's through
I've got to take you for my wife
So the story of my life
Can start and end with you.
The sorrow in our love was breakin' up
The mem'ry of a broken heart
And later on, the joy of makin' up
Never never more to part.
There's one thing left to do
Before my story's through
I've got to take you for my wife
So the story of my life
Can start and end.
Can start and end
Can start and end with you...

Someday I'm gonna write
At some point in the future, I will compose
The story of my life
The narrative of my existence
I'll tell about the night we met
I will recount the evening when we first encountered each other
And how my heart can't forget
My emotions cannot erase from memory
The way you smiled at me.
The manner in which you grinned in my direction.
I want the world to know
I desire for the entire globe to become aware of
The moment when your lips met mine
The occasion when our mouths united
And that first exciting time
As well as that initial thrilling experience
I held you close to me.
When I held you near my body.
The sorrow in our love was breakin' up
The sadness in our romance was causing a split

But later on, the joy of makin' up
However, subsequently the happiness of reconciliation
Never never more to part.
We swore to never separate again.
There's one thing left to do
There is still one task remaining
Before my story's through
Prior to the conclusion of my autobiography
I've got to take you for my wife
I need to marry you

To ensure my life's story
Can start and end with you.
Begins and concludes with your presence.
Can start and end.
Can initiate and terminate.
Can start and end with you...
Can commence and conclude with you...
