Runaway Bride

Her life was at a crossroad Nothing was going right Being pulled in all directions She was ready to take flight The sheep have long been sleeping But she lays in bed wide awake Thinking of the choices She is going to have to make One way gives her freedom She's desired since a child. To move from this small town To a city of lights that's wild The other is to stay and marry Raise a baby or two or three She wonders as she stares "Is that the life for me?" Her choice to be made quickly Time is not on her side She knew he'd ask her that night If she would be his bride She's never seen the main street Never experienced the hardship Making a life all of her own She never had sailed that ship If there are any doubts don't do it Life is more than a casual ride She turns the key in the ignition Ride away my runaway bride.
