Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)

I am not the kind of girlWho should be rudely bargin' in on a white veil occasionBut you are not the kind of boyWho should be marrying the wrong girlI sneak in and see your friendsAnd her snotty little familyAll dressed in pastelAnd she is yelling at a bridesmaidSomewhere back inside a roomWearin' a gown shaped like a pastryThis is surely not what you thought it would beI lose myself in a daydreamWhere I stand and sayDon't say yes, run away nowI'll meet you when you're outOf the church, at the back doorDon't wait or say a single vowYou need to hear me outAnd they said, "Spеak now"Fond gestures are еxchangedAnd the organ starts to play a songThat sounds like a death marchAnd I am hiding in the curtainsIt seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-beShe floats down the aisle like a pageant queenBut I know you wish it was meYou wish it was me, don't you?Don't say yes, run away nowI'll meet you when you're outOf the church, at the back doorDon't wait or say a single vowYou need to hear me outAnd they said, "Speak now"Don't say yes, run away now (Run away now)I'll meet you when you're outOf the church, at the back doorDon't wait or say a single vow (Say a single vow)Your time is running outAnd they said, "Speak now"Ooh (Run away now), laOoh (Say a single vow), oohI hear the preacher say"Speak now or forever hold your peace"There's the silence, there's my last chanceI stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on meHorrified looks from everyone in the roomBut I'm only lookin' at youI am not the kind of girlWho should be rudely bargin' in on a white veil occasionBut you are not the kind of boyWho should be marrying the wrong girl, hahaSo, don't say yes, run away nowI'll meet you when you're outOf the church, at the back doorDon't wait or say a single vowYou need to hear me outThey said, "Speak now"And you say, "Let's run away now (Run away now)I'll meet you when I'm outOf my tux, at the back doorBaby, I didn't say my vows (Say a single vow)So glad you were aroundWhen they said, 'Speak now'"
