| Boy, I just heard you’re getting married
|
| And it took all the air straight out my lungs
|
| Shit just got real, it kinda scares me
|
| 'Cause I’m finding out letting go ain’t that much fun
|
| When you’re walking down aisle
|
| And when you’re holding on
|
| Onto your brand new child
|
| I hope you think of me
|
| Of everything we had
|
| And everything we couldn’t be
|
| When the day is dark
|
| You know that I can’t help but
|
| Wonder where you are
|
| And wonder if things would be better
|
| If we’d stayed together
|
| If you stayed
|
| Boy, I just can’t carry this burden
|
| And they say that the truth will set you free
|
| But even the words can’t stop this hurtin'
|
| So I guess it’s true, sometimes lies are what you need
|
| When you’re walking down the aisle
|
| And when you’re holding on
|
| Onto your brand new child
|
| I hope you think of me
|
| Of everything we had
|
| And everything we couldn’t be
|
| When the day is dark
|
| You know that I can’t help but
|
| Wonder where you are
|
| And wonder if things would be better
|
| If we’d stayed together
|
| And if you stayed—
|
| Would we have the life I’d always dreamed about?
|
| Picket fences, cyprus trees outside the house
|
| Candlelights, and the nights, and falling rain
|
| Years go by, but still it’d always feel the same
|
| Or would it be the way it used to, long ago?
|
| The ups and downs, the epic highs, the tragic lows
|
| The endless tears that I would cry all summer long
|
| It’s strange to see the things you start to miss
|
| When they’re all gone
|
| When you’re walking down the aisle
|
| And when you’re holding on
|
| Onto your brand new child
|
| I hope you think of me
|
| And everything we had
|
| And everything we couldn’t be
|
| When the day is dark
|
| You know that I can’t help but
|
| Wonder where you are
|
| And wonder if things would be better
|
| If we’d stayed together
|
| If you stayed |
