The Wedding Song

There's an old song I wrote for you

It was everything you'd want it to be

A melody lift, a minor chord fall

It was timeless like you and me

And when the chorus hit, it felt like flying

It would have played at every wedding night

It went like

You are my one, you set my world on fire

I know there's heaven, but we must be higher

I'm gonna love you till my heart retires

Forever will last

I think it went something like that

There's an old song I wrote for you

I would play it for all of our friends

It would make them all dance, and make them all cry

When it's over they'd say play it again

I would have sang it to you soft and sweet

You'd want it every anniversary

And it went like

You are my one, you set my world on fire

I know there's heaven, but we must be higher

Must be higher

I'm gonna love you till my heart retires

Forever will last

I think it went something like that

Why'd you have to mess it all up?

Why'd you have to burn it all down?

The words were so perfect

The world should have heard it

And sang every line out loud

Why'd you have to mess it all up?

Why'd you have to burn it all down?

Should've played on the radio

Day after day

Till they say that it's all played out

Now

Now

Now

And it went like

You are my one, you set my world on fire

I know there's heaven but we must be higher

I'm gonna love you till my heart retires

Forever will last

I think it went something like that

Forever will last

I think it went something like that
