The Wedding

I see the guest dressed in there best 
Oh how I wish that they could see the truth 
As I walk down the aisle, 
I see the frown of the man that 
Says he loves me. 
With tears running down my eyes 
I can't deny that I share that same frown 
But it's inside my heart 
Can he see, do they know? 
Should I head for the door? 
What should I do, what should I say? 
Will this feeling ever go away? 
As he looks into my eyes, I feel butterflies 
The pastor says, are you ok? 
I say, yes let's be on our way 
He takes my hand, and says 
Do you understand that, I'm not your man 
I can't say I do, cause, I never loved you
