Lyrics of 'Speak Now' by The Fergies

I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl
I sneak in and see your friends
And her snotty little family all dressed in pastel
And she is yelling at her bridesmaid
Somewhere back inside a room,
Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry
This is surely not what you thought it would be
I lose myself in a daydream, where I stand and say

Don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet you when you're out of the church, at the back door
Don't wait, or say a single vow,
You need to hear me out,
And they said "Speak Now"

Fond gestures are exchanged,
And the organ starts to play
A song that sounds like a death march
And I am hiding in the curtains
It seems that I was uninvited
By your lovely bride to be
She floats down the aisle like
A pageant queen
But I know you wish it was me,
You wish it was me
(Don't you)

Don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet you when you're out of the church, at the back door
Don't wait, or say a single vow,
You need to hear me out,
And they said "Speak Now"

Don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet you when you're out of the church, at the back door
Don't wait, or say a single vow,
Your time is runnin' out,
And they said "Speak Now"

I hear the preacher say
"Speak now or forever hold your peace"
There's a silence, there's my last chance,
I stand up with shaky hands
All eyes on me;
Horrified looks from everyone in the room
But I'm only looking at you

I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl

Don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet you when you're out of the church, at the back door
Don't wait, or say a single vow,
You need to hear me out,
And they said "Speak Now"

And you'll say "Let's run away now",
I'll meet you when I'm out of my tux, at the back door
Baby, I didn't say my vow,
I'm so glad you were around
When they said "Speak Now"
