CHORUS:

Trainwreck! that?s what they called our relationship
Trainwreck! the two of us would just never fit.
Well baby look who?s riding the rails now
still on track after all these years, wow!
We showed them all after all, after all
we showed them all after all, after all

VERSE 1:

Friends told us we were both way too loud
family told us we were both too proud
Don?t waste your time, it just wouldn?t do
a relationship with the two of you
Would just be a disaster on deck
already certain it?d be a trainwreck
Decided to meet, figured what the heck
nothin? to lose, just another reject

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 2:

We saw each other and fell in love
before you knew it we were dreaming of
Our life together as man and wife
together for the rest of our lives
No one believed we?d ever get past
the first year, first fight, we?d fizzle fast
Said we?d be through before we?d begun
wouldn?t be long before we were done

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 3:
From the start we knew this love was right
we?re lovin? lovin? most ev?ry night
It just gets sweeter from year to year
Train whistle?s blaring, calling all clear
All green lights now, it?s full speed ahead
no one can tell us this love is dead
We took a chance on meeting and found
a lifetime love that will stay around

REPEAT CHORUS:
