I got married cos you should. We both knew we should. You do at our age. This stage of our career. Things get tight. A ring helps get a mortgage. To move out of daddy's home. Get a bigger car. Easy access to the city. I can read the papers in peace. And laugh at the homeless. I know my friends criticize. But we get by OK. So what if there's no emotion. We can wake up anywhere. There's never a row. No time for a kiss. When you've got schedules to meet. Trivialities seem so cheap. This is above love. This is more than real. This is all there is. This is as good as it gets-.
