My Wedding Day

Today..wow...today is my wedding day honestly I'm surprised, caught off guard this moment is actually here so fast, too fast Wasn't just yesterday, your hand in mine watching the sunset fall asleep with your head on my shoulder my thoughts wandering, 'we're getting older yet we're still young just the same' as you whisper in my ear 'What a perfect ending to this day.' Today...today is my wedding day I'm beyond nervous and my selective amnesia has subdued what was I trying to say was it how I felt the first day I met her or was it my meteoric rise as a moon caught in her gravitational pull, a planet I've seen the movies so forgive me for doubting but still I wonder if she will approach me looking like a model, stunningly breathtaking in a flowing white dress, her father in tow Would he give her away to me in faith trust I would love her always So here I stand upon an alter upon a throne I'm not worthy of awaiting her approach, shaking and trembling and her answer, I'm still pondering what it could be My awaiting answer is greeted with my awaiting bride with her hair covering up her eye, coming up the aisle she's completely perfect, this is so worth it as her hands are interlocked with mine The preacher's repeating his prepared script but I'm taking in her elegance why do I feel so irrelevant, is it due to arrogance I can't think of it now, it's time for the vows Ladies first and I'm hanging on her every word now I know what I need to say 'Your voice is the soundtrack to all our summers can your voice be the soundtrack be the soundtrack to my life Looking in your eyes, take my hand there's a world I need to know a whole new world I know will only get better You are the best thing in my life I love you forever and always so please say I do and be my wife'
