Song lyrics

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 her 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 your 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

Fun 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 your 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 your 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

I hear the preacher say
"Speak now or forever hold your peace"
There's a 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 your 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 when I'm out of my tux at the back door
Baby, I didn't say my vows,
I'm so glad you were around
When they said speak now"
