Someone Old
The bells are ringing and time is ticking
Everybody is doing some last minute fixing
Our memories are everywhere, flashing
The day is here and my heart is sinking
CHORUS:
Something borrowed, something blue
Someone old and someone new
Someone perfect just for you
Should’ve been me
And could've been you
Pretty bride to be staring out the window
Looking like a dream in that dress
But inside she’s a crazy mess
Baby, please tell me you’re not going to say yes
I have something to confess
Our love will never die
You just can’t get married to that guy
Tick-tock, bad luck
My open heart, ready to lock
On your marks, get set
say no
I'm on the edge of letting go
CHORUS
How can I forever hold my peace?
That really shouldn’t have been our last kiss
Do you remember our first dance, my love?
Baby, that’s what magic is made of
I really can’t let you go through with this
Let me be your mister, you can be my miss
Tick-tock, bad luck
My open heart, ready to lock
On your marks, get set
say no
I'm on the edge of letting go
The flowers, the church, the cake
Baby, you’re making a big mistake
I wish you would just pick up the phone
You may be with him but you’re still alone
CHORUS
How can I forever hold my peace?
That really shouldn’t have been our last kiss
Baby, take those empty words and diamond
and shove it
Baby, you don’t want it
“Me and you forever” has a nice ring to it
Saying "I do" might just ruin it
CHORUS
I really need you to remember me
Need you to care?
I really need you to remember us
Baby, true love is rare
I really need you to focus now
Baby, are you still there?
