Now You're Taken Lyrics

Did you see him when I was away?
I would have phoned but you'd spoil the trip.
Will he be in the pub tonight?
I'll hide my rage and take a sip.

Will he be yours as of today?
Will I never see you know if you're taken?
Are you still the wearing that ring?
When she told me I was a little shaken.

Like a bird without the bed,
her sister says that we'll get wed.
And I should tell you I adore you
but I'm sure it would just bore you.

I always thought it was 'Will I never see you NOW if you're taken?' It makes more sense.

@blood is thin nah it's I'll hate marriage and take a sip-it can be difficult because he talks/mumbles but I've a much broader Scottish accent than him and heard plenty people speak in a mumbling way like this haha absolutely adore this song though, it's got that "warm sadness" of a feel in it I think

I always thought the Aidan said: "I would have fallen, but you would have spoiled the drop."
