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 

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 that 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? 

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 

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 

So 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 

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
