From: "Music To String Her Along By"
Long White Wedding Dress
The party's over and it's late
I watch you walking through the gate
His arm around your waist
His fate within your fate
I take another drink of beer
Your voice explaining's all I hear
Despite your bitter tears
You cannot remain here
I'll send on to your new address
Your work clothes and your Sunday best
And your long white wedding dress
Please note, the photographs I've kept
Beside the beating of my heart
My world has torn apart
In one fell swoop you've broken me
Embittered me and tortured me
My fears so beautifully expressed
Tears upon your long white wedding dress
I think of tricks I might have missed
I break the doorframe with my fist
I see that face of his
I feel a little sick
I want to hold you once again
It's you I want to stop the pain
To tell me nothing's changed
That life remains the same
I'll send on to your new address
Your work clothes and your Sunday best
And your long white wedding dress
Please note, the photographs I've kept
Beside the beating of my heart
My world has torn apart
In one fell swoop you've broken me
Embittered me and tortured me
My fears so beautifully expressed
Tears upon your long white wedding dress
