For Better or for Worse

For Better or for Worse - Connie Smith

Written by：Bill Anderson/Moneen Carpenter

The wedding bells have barely stopped their ringing

But already all your love for me is gone

On the day that we were wed

Well I guess we should have said

For better or for worse but not for long

Now my dream of love

Has turned into a nightmare

For you say that in your life I don't belong

You said your vows I said mine

But we both left out one line

For better or for worse

But not for long

All the lifetime that we planned

Has been a short one

And the love that couldn't die did not live long

I wanted you eternally

But you only wanted me

For better or for worse

But not for long

For better or for worse

But not for long
