 youll start to fit like hand and glove

and then youll start to hate the men she used to dream of

 youll miss her madly , when youre apart

 love is like gravity holding down your heart

C G Am

 shell be enquiring and concerned 

C G F

and with the awkwardness of strangers 
 you will finally give up
