London: Singer Elton John is eagerly awaiting the Parliament`s decision to legalise same-sex marriage in Britain. He wants to legally marry his long time partner David Furnish. The couple is hoping to be among the first married gay couple in the country after legally entering into a civil partnership in 2005, reports express.co.uk. "Absolutely, we`re going to get married.
