Sometimes you only have to move one rock
For an avalanche to start
Sometimes it only takes one smile
To get inside and mess around your heart
Ever since I met you we`ve been tumbling toward destruction
That`s as certain as the setting of the sun
If I`d known I`d fall in love with you
I`d have fixed it so we never would have met
Never having known you
Would have made you so much easier to forget
You`re about as good for me as I am good for you
And that`s about as good as an avalanche is fun
And I wish that we were married
So we could get divorced
Get over this loving stuff
Let nature take its course
You can`t choose who you love
Darling we`re the living proof
So we`ll ride this old landslide where it takes us
Headlong to the truth
I`m moving through this landscape
With all the grace of a two-legged mule
I try to stand a while
Then I accept it, I`m no exception to the rule
As I`m bouncing down this mountainside I am pleasantly confounded
But I`m worried that it`s never going to stop
I`m thinking as I`m falling I hope I don`t land
Where anyone will see me
I`d rather lay in solitude
Until the winds of time blow by to free me
But I`ve got the peace of mind of a skydiver whose parachute won`t open
In other words, I`m good to the last drop
CHORUS
And I got two-months` pay burning a hole in my pocket
It`s a crazy thing
I don`t know if I should move as far away as I can
Or buy you a wedding ring
And I wish that we were married
Hey maybe we would get divorced
If we get over this loving stuff
If nature takes that course etc.
