--Verse--
I knew that when I saw her, 
That my life would soon move over from the fast lane, 
Gone would be the days of all my drinking and my carrying on, 
But when I settled down, 
The party king uncrowned, 
This stubborn memory hadn’t faded, 
Too many dumb mistakes and all the grief it makes, 
Left nothing else to be debated.
