(spoken)
Ya know sometimes in your life you may find it hurts to be in love
Specially when you and the one ya love already belong to somebody else
You're tied to her and i'm tied to him
and we dont wanna hurt either one of them
That's how it is...

(chorus)
When you're married
But not to each other
Ya gotta go home in the middle of the night
Try and pretend everythings alright
But it aint, no it aint

When you're married
But not to each other
Make believe that you've been good
Give your love to the one you should
But you cant, no you cant

Cause you're tied to her and i'm tied to him
We dont wanna hurt either one of them
So what can you do, what can you do

When you're married
But not to each other
Ya gotta be careful everywhere you go
Tryin to avoid everyone you know
Cause people talk, you know they talk

When you're married
But not to each other
You've gotta make up alabies
Hopin they dont sound like lies
Cause if you get caught, and ya might get caught

Hurry up and love him
Hurry up and please him
And when it gets right
You've got to leave him
You better leave him

Cause you're tied to her, i'm tied to him
We dont wanna hurt either one of them
That's how it is, that's how it is

When you're married
But not to each other

Hurry up and love him
Hurry up and please him
And when it gets right
You've got to leave him
You better leave him
