Wedding Dress
Kevin Lien Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I kept my feelings wrapped.
I'll always ask myself,
"How did I lose her heart?"
Your love was in my reach
but now, far, far, far, far gone.
I never thought that
I would fall, fall, fall this hard.
all the feelings in my heart
thinking that if I told you,
You and I would fall apart.
I hesitated.
and now our love is breaking.
'cause you moved on
and I'm still waiting.'
Baby
He won't ever
love you like I do
'Cause you should be my lady
Waited for so long to say to you
Come back to me
It was so Perfect in my dreams.
don't you know that
I will always love you forever.
But baby
When the church bells ring
you know I wanted us
to be there together
Now you're in your wedding dress.
Now you're in your wedding dress
How could he be the one?
Now you're in your wedding dress... ohh, no!
Now it all comes down to this.
Our love was such a bliss.
You've blessed me with the best
and now he wants in your heart.
I wanted you to know
my heart bled, bled for you.
but would he ever do
the same, same, Same for you
we played this game called Love
but how is it that I came out gone?
Wishing that this could have been
real this time around, our love.
Tick, tick, the time runs.
and I can't, can't keep on it
'Cause time won't tell.
will I make it home?
Baby
He won't ever
love you like I do
'Cause you should be my lady
Waited for so long to say to you
Come back to me
It was so Perfect in my dreams.
don't you know that
I will always love you forever.
But baby
When the church bells ring
you know I wanted us
to be there together
Now you're in your wedding dress.
Now you're in your wedding dress
How could he be the one?
Now you're in your wedding dress... ohh, no!
Well, I guess the time has come
the veil has to come off.
He takes your hand, but baby
Please, don't say, "I do."
it's tearing me apart.
it's choking me
it's piercing my heart
and my soul (Whoa oh!)
It was so Perfect in my dreams
don't you know that
I will always love you forever
But baby
When the church bells ring
you know I wanted us
to be there together
Now you're in your wedding dress
Now you're in your wedding dress
How could he be the one?
Now you're in your wedding dress
ohh, no!
