Text: Vanessa Carlton. I Don't Wanna Be A Bride.
I like your company
Got a new philosophy
Never knew
Such a gentleman
You could 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
Swing on a tree
Grandfather's clock
porcelain for tea
A garden with rose and jasmine
Wanna get drunk on a bottle of wine
No better way to pass the time
Forever by your side
Chorus
I don't wanna be a bride
Apologies to your mother
But I could be your girl and share this life with you
But I don't wanna wear white
You know it's too late for that
But can't we keep the ever after, or could it be
Don't need no golden ring
It'd be no match for the love you'd bring
from London to Tennessee
We could catch a train to another life
On a wing under the moonlight
I promise you
And will you promise me?
Our last names on a wooden sign
Arm in arm where the river starts to wind
Forever by your side
Chorus
I don't wanna be a bride
Apologies to each other
but I could be your girl
And share this life with you
But I don't wanna wear white
But you know it's too late for that
But can't we keep the ever after,or could it be
Just you and me
Aaaa Aaaa Aaa, we will live like kings under lavender
Skies Skies
we will live like kings under lavender
Skies Skies
We will build 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 live.
