Wedding Vows

With this ring I thee wed Only to awake and find that once again it's all pretend It's my crystal clear visions of you whirling around in my head People will say that one of the things to heal a heart is time That's something I don't run short on and it's driving me out of my mind It's like my heart and soul are locked away in a cell and being in love with you is my only crime Caught up here lost within the game Constantly forever screaming out always your name And it's making me go intensely insane Here in these moments together, is where I need you to be Making more sweet memories of you and of me All I can do is hope that one day soon you will see What I've been saying is all so true But until that day may or may not come, I'll continue to be for you blue And I'll wonder if time will ever give me what's due And those visions will still be whirling around intently in my head But reality tells me with this ring I do not thee wed Because you are with her, for now, instead
