Cath...

Cath...

She stands

With a well-intentioned man

But she can't

Relax

With his hand

On the small of her back

As the flash bulbs burst

She holds a smile

Like someone would hold

A cryin' child

And soon everybody will ask

What became of you

'Cause your heart was dyin' fast

And you didn't know what to do

Cath...

It seems

That you live

In someone else's dream

In a hand-me-down

Weddin' dress

Where the things

That could have been

Are oppressed

But you said your vows

And you closed the door

On so many men

Who would have loved you more

And soon everybody will ask

What became of you

'Cause your heart was dyin' fast

And you didn't know what to do

The whispers that it won't last

Roll up and down the pews

But if their hearts were dyin' that fast

They'd have done the same as you

And I'd have done the same as you
