My Wedding Day
Today..wow...today is my wedding day
honestly I'm surprised, caught off guard
this moment is actually here so fast, too fast
Wasn't just yesterday, your hand in mine
watching the sunset fall asleep
with your head on my shoulder
my thoughts wandering,
'we're getting older yet we're still young just the same'
as you whisper in my ear
'What a perfect ending to this day.'
Today...today is my wedding day
I'm beyond nervous and my selective amnesia has subdued
what was I trying to say
was it how I felt the first day I met her
or was it my meteoric rise as a moon
caught in her gravitational pull, a planet
I've seen the movies so forgive me for doubting
but still I wonder if she will approach me
looking like a model, stunningly breathtaking
in a flowing white dress, her father in tow
Would he give her away to me in faith
trust I would love her always
So here I stand upon an alter
upon a throne I'm not worthy of
awaiting her approach, shaking and trembling
and her answer, I'm still pondering what it could be
My awaiting answer is greeted with my awaiting bride
with her hair covering up her eye, coming up the aisle
she's completely perfect, this is so worth it
as her hands are interlocked with mine
The preacher's repeating his prepared script
but I'm taking in her elegance
why do I feel so irrelevant, is it due to arrogance
I can't think of it now, it's time for the vows
Ladies first and I'm hanging on her every word
now I know what I need to say
'Your voice is the soundtrack to all our summers
can your voice be the soundtrack be the soundtrack to my life
Looking in your eyes, take my hand
there's a world I need to know
a whole new world I know will only get better
You are the best thing in my life
I love you forever and always
so please say I do and be my wife'
