I Don't Want To Be A Bride

(album: Rabbits On The Run - 2011)

I like your company
Got a fresh philosophy
Never knew
Such a gentleman
You can take me on a cheap vacation
I don't wanna have expectations 'cause you
Could be the end of me
And I don't need a house on a hill
A swing on a tree
Grandfather Clock
Porcelain for tea
A garden
With rose and Jasmine

Gonna get drunk on a bottle of wine
No better way to pass the time
Forever by your side

But I don't wanna be a bride
Apologies to your mother
I wanna be your girl
And spend this life with you
But I don't wanna wear white
You know it's too late for that
But can we keep the ever after?
Oh could it be

Don't need no golden ring
It'd be no match for the love it brings
From London
To Tennessee
We could
Catch a train to another life
On a whim, under the moonlight
I promise you
Will you promise me?

Our last names on a wooden sign
Arm in arm, where the river starts to wind
Forever by your side

But I don't wanna be a bride
Apologies to each other
I wanna be your girl
And spend this life with you
But I don't wanna wear white
Oh, you know it's too late for that
But can we keep the ever after?
Oh could it be
Just you and me?

I, I, I
We will live like kings
Under lavender
Skies
Skies
We will live like kings
Under lavender
Skies
Skies

Built a poem, we kept a rhyme
Wrapped our love in golden twine
We wrote
We wrote a legacy
Just you and me

Just like kings under lavender
Skies
Skies
We will
