bridesmaid

We'd stay awake for hours, picking out the kinds of flowers

I'd have in my bouquet

Said you'd catch it on the day

You're in the family picture, you felt like my older sister

The one I never had

Yeah, we got along like that

You were the first one that I'd choose

You were the last one that I'd wanna lose

I thought you'd be my bridesmaid

It's funny how our lives changed

Tell me, what was it for?

When you said you'd be my best friend

You'd love me till the world ends

And now I finally found the man that I adore

But you won't be my bridesmaid anymore

I miss when we were younger, laughing through the heat of summer

Long talks in your back seat

Sharing secrets I still keep

Been so long that I forgot all the reasons that we fought

I'm stuck with my regrets

Staring at your empty dress

I thought you'd be my bridesmaid

It's funny how our lives changed

Tell me, what was it for?

When you said you'd be my best friend

You'd love me till the world ends

And now I finally found the man that I adore

But you won't be my bridesmaid anymore

Who's gonna fix my hair and wipe the tears away?

Who's gonna hold my hand and tell me it's okay?

Who's gonna stand behind me when I say, "I do?"

Oh, it'll be someone, but not you

And I thought you'd be my bridesmaid

It's funny how our lives changed

Tell me, what was it for?

When you said you'd be my best friend

You'd love me till the world ends

Now I finally found the man that I adore

But you won't be my bridesmaid anymore
