Vanessa Carlton - I Don't Want to Be a Bride lyrics

rate me

I like your company, got a fresh philosophy

Never knew such a gentleman

You can take me on a cheap vacation

I don't want to have expectations

'Cause you could be the end of me

And I don't need a house on a hill

A swing on a tree, a grandfather clock

Porcelain for tea, a garden with rose and jasmine

Gonna get drunk on a bottle of wine

No better way to pass the time

Forever by your side

But I don't wanna be a bride

Apologies to your mother

I wanna be your girl

And spend this life with you

But I don't wanna wear white

You know it's too late for that

But can't we keep the ever after, love

Or could it be?

Don't need no golden ring

It'd be no match for the love you bring

From London to Tennessee

We could catch a train to another life

On a whim under the moonlight

I promise you, will you promise me?

Our last names on a wooden sign

Arm in arm where the river starts to wind

Forever by your side

But I don't wanna be a bride

Apologies to each other

I wanna be your girl

And spend this life with you

But I don't wanna wear white

Oh you know it's too late for that

But can't we keep the ever after

Or could it be just you and me?

Ah, ah, ah...

We will live like kings under lavender skies, skies

We will live like kings under lavender skies, skies

We built a poem, we kept a rhyme

Wrapped our love in golden twine

We wrote, we wrote a legacy

Just you and me

We will live like kings under lavender skies, skies

We will
