Lyrics:

You have to swear
You’ve got love to love me
That will last forever
We must have a story
With a happy ending So don’t ever go away
And never put aside
The things I’m gonna say
Cause these are rules for us Use your eyes only to look at me
Use your mouth only to kiss my lips
We are branches of the same old tree
You can laugh only if you laugh at me
You can cry only if you cry for me
Don’t forget that you’re condemned to me Can’t you see
You always were
You’ll always be You used to say
I should see a doctor
Who would keep me busy
Cause a jealous woman
Never makes it easy And you know I’ll do for us
Whatever seems right
But it may take a while
Before I change the rules Use your eyes only to look at me
Use your mouth only to kiss my lips
We are branches of the same old tree
You can laugh only if you laugh at me
You can cry only if you cry for me
Don’t forget that you’re condemned to me Can’t you see
You always were
You’ll always be Use your eyes only to look at me
Use your mouth only to kiss my lips
We are branches of the same old tree
You can laugh only if you laugh at me
You can cry only if you cry for me
Don’t forget that you’re condemned to me Can’t you see
You always were
You’ll always be
