Taylor Swift - Speak Now

I am 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

[Chorus:]

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”

Fond gestures are exchanged

And the organ starts to play

A song that sounds like a death march

And I am 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?

[Chorus]

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

Your time is running out

And they said, “Speak now”

Ooh, la la

Ooh, ooh

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 shaky hands, all eyes on me

Horrified looks from everyone in the room

But I’m only looking at you

I am 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

[Chorus]

And you’ll say “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”
