We cut the cake everybody danced and some people drank too much
You looked like the cover of Brides magazine and I looked like some guy in the tux
I'll never forget when your Uncle Bill pulled up a chair and sat down

He said son I've been married now 45 years and pointed at you through the crowd

And said


[Chorus]
Love her like she's leaving

Like it's going to end if you don't
Love her like she's leaving
Oh and I guarantee she won't


He said it's sending her flowers for no reason at all and notes on the fridge every day
An unexpected gift at an unexpected time, that keep the lawyers away

It's easy to take forever for granted with tin cans tied to your car
I know she tells you that she'll always be there but I'm telling you if you're smart


[Chorus]

She could have any man she wants you know it's true

Best way to keep her is to keep her wanting you

[Chorus]


Love her like she's leaving
Oh and I guarantee she won't
