Do I?

I asked you a question, down on one knee,

"How 'bout it baby, will you marry me?"

You walked down the aisle,

I watched your mother cry,

I said I do, now I'm wondering;

Do I?

***

Did I know what was coming, way down the road?

Did I know about the tears, the trust I'd erode?

Did I know how hard it is just to try?

I said I do, now I'm wondering;

Do I?

***

It started out great, just like we'd planned,

A house in the suburbs and a ring on your hand,

Now I'm drinking alone,

Beneath a grey northern sky,

I said I do, now I'm wondering;

Do I?

***

Did I know that I couldn’t stay faithful to you?

Did I know what a mess I could turn things into?

Did I know that you can't build a life on a lie?

I said I do, now I'm wondering;

Do I?

***

Now the cries of this kid are piercing my ears

I've failed as a husband and father for years

When I come back from the bar

I can't look you in the eye

I said I do, now I'm wondering;

Do I?

***

Did I understand the words that I spoke?

Did I know how it felt to be tired and broke?

Did I know it ain't easy to be your perfect guy?

I said I do, now I'm wondering;

Do I?

***

Do I know what it takes to mend a broken pledge?

Do I have what it takes to step back from this edge?

I didn't take the time to kiss you goodbye

I thought I wanted out, now I'm wondering;

Do I?
