Speak Now 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 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 loose 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 the said "speak now" 

Fun gestures are exchanged 
And the organs starts to play 
A song that sounds like a death march 
And I am hiding in the curtains 
It seems I was uninvited 
By your lovely bride-to-be 
She floats down the isle 
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 the 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 
You need to hear me out 
And the 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 shaking 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 the said, "speak now" 

And you 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 when they said 
"Speak now"
