Wedding Song
Scott MacIntyre Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This picture is perfect
The journey here was worth it
Two candles, one twilight few
It's only me and you

Just leave it all behind
We'll spend an eternity
In each others eyes
We'll love, we'll never die
What more do we need to share
When we share our lives

We said we'd get married
And make a happy ending
Before we can't see the light
Tomorrow is tonight

Just leave it all behind
We'll spend an eternity
In each others eyes
We'll love, we'll never die

What more do we need to share
When we share our lives

And we'll walk down by the ocean at night
Pretend our way is lit by starlight
And we'll stay til dawn
And if we never see another soul
Come to cross our path
We'll know it's alright
We can't be wrong

Just leave it all behind
We'll spend an eternity
In each others eyes
We'll love, we'll never die




What more do we need to share
When we share our lives

The couple had promised each other that they would get married and make a happy ending before it's too late. They decide to take a walk by the ocean at night, pretending that the way is lit by the starlight, and stay until dawn.
