Forget their blessing and forget the weather
We'll join our christian names together
Write all our friends back home
We'll leave tonight and we'll leave together
I'll say what airline and you'll said whatever
Leave all our friends back home
You'll talk of sons and I'll talk of daughters
We'll find a little place by the water
Worry all our friends back home
I'll do the talking and you'll write the letters
I'll sing the beatles and you'll sing them better
Forget all our friends back home
It's raining
In Vancouver
But I don't give a fuck
Because I'm far from home tonight
It's raining
In Vancouver
But I don't give a fuck
Because I'm alone with you tonight
