The Wedding

(album: Mulberry Street - 2005)

I got dragged
Into this wedding with my friend Maurice
Hoping to dance and drink some fine champagne
Still get out early enough to drive your car
Out to the ocean
But the clouds were lost
And all the songs were sweet

Starry eyed
I'm sentimental and I get sucked in
To any union
Promising away
Like it's so easy to know how you'll be
Come anniversary

Oh, I can keep a promise
No, I can't keep a secret

She's in bloom
Her lips and shoulders dressing up this room
Dancing like the wedding's ended and.. ?

I've got time
I've been around and I've got time
But it's a crime to sit and wonder
And oh, it's a crime, oh

If you knew, oh
If you knew, oh

I am in love with everyone here
I am in love with everyone here
No, I'm not in love with anyone dear
I'm not in love

She's in bloom
Her lips and shoulders dressing up this room
Dancing like the wedding's ended and.. ?

But I've got time
I've been around and I've got time
And it's a crime to sit and wonder
And God, it's a crime

I can keep a promise
No, I can't keep a secret
Oh, I can keep a promise
No, I can't keep a...

Na, na, na, na, no
No, no, no
No
