Why are you rushing me to marry
The rush... I don't need
Marriage itself is stressful
I'm not ready to sow that seed.

I see so many marriages fail
That statistic right now is not me
Whenever I choose to marry
It will really be meant to be.

Yes... I'm scared of marriage
Tell me why shouldn't I be
Belonging to someone else for life
No longer "me" but "we".

With marriage comes responsibility
You are responsible for your mate
If he is missing something
Getting it is a job you take.

I barely can take care of myself
Why add an extra bill
It's not that I'm selfish
But I'm just keeping it real.

Truth is... I'm not ready yet
When I am... you'll know
I'll shout it... oh so loud
My face will really glow.

See, I have premarital jitters
Marriage is an awesome word
Doing it before you are ready
To me... that's absurd.
