I'm, not the kind of girl,
who should be rudely barging in
on a white veil occasion
but you, are not the kind of boy,
who should be marrying the wrong girl.
I sneak in and see your friends,
and her snotty little family
all dressed in pastel,
and she, is yelling at a bridesmaid,
somewhere back inside a room
wearing a gown shaped like a pastry.
This is, surely not what you
thought it would be.
I, lose myself in a daydream.
Where I stand and say:
Don't say yes, run away now
I'll meet you when you're out
of the church at the back door.
Don't wait or say a single vow,
you need to hear me out
and they said "speak now".
Fun, gestures are exchanged,
and the organ starts to play
a song that sounds like a death march
and I'm, hiding in the curtains,
it seems I was uninvited
by your lovely bride-to-be,
she floats down the aisle
like a pageant queen
but I know, you wish it was me,
you wish it was me, don't you?
I hear the preacher say
"Speak now or forever hold your peace"
There's the silence,
there's my last chance,
I stand up with shaking hands,
all eyes on me.
Horrified looks, from
everyone in the room
but I'm only looking at you.
I'm, not the kind of girl,
who should be rudely barging in
on a white veil occasion
but you, are not the kind of boy,
who should be marrying the wrong girl.
So don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet you when you're out
of the church at the back door.
Don't wait or say a single vow,
you need to hear me out
and they said, "speak now".
Let's run away now, I'll meet you
when I'm out of my tux at the back door.
Baby, I didn't say my vows,
so glad you were around
when they said "speak now".
