Spoken For

Her heart is already spoken for
My heart is broken into
For I'm such a fool to fall in love
With the girl who's marrying you

Her eyes see the world brand new
My eyes mist tears of shame
For what kind of friend am I
To fall for my best friend's dame

Her lips utter the sweetest phrases
My lips I dare not move
Forever I shall be silent
Its what a true friend would do

Her face smiles in my dreams
My face I force a smile for them
When they say "I do"
My heart wants only to be him

Her laugh makes the angels sing
My laugh hides my crying
When he puts the ring on her finger
Inside my heart is dying

Her kiss can melt the coldest heart
My kiss will never know her love
A broken heart can mend in time
A broken friendship won't win her love

Her heart is already spoken for
My heart is broken into
For the Best Man on this wedding day
Will remain the best man and a friend forever true.
