Lyrics
Your lies got old
Guess I always knew
The time we had was borrowed
& I’m the one that’s blue
Now I’ll play the villain
& you’ll play the fool
You can tell the guests what you like
But we both know the truth
It could’ve been everything we wanted
But you cut the ties that bind
Now I’m kicking myself for believing in a lie
When the church bells ring & our friends all rise
You’re at the altar
& I’m a runaway bride
Bride
I kept my name
& I kept the ring
A reminder of what could’ve been
Just a shiny pretty thing
It could’ve been everything we wanted
But you cut the ties that bind
Now I’m kicking myself for believing in a lie
When the church bells ring & our friends all rise
You’re at the altar
& I’m a runaway bride
Bride
It’s funny how we swear up & down
About the things we’d never be
I knew right now I’d be taking vows
But now just look at me
I thought you were everything I wanted
Till you cut the ties that bind
Now I’m kicking myself for ever believing in a lie
& when I pawn that ring, I’ll be wearin white
You’re at the altar
& I’m a runaway bride
Bride
Oooo
