"A Song You Might Hear At A Wedding"

“Forever,”
“All,”
And “always”
are words I’ve used before
with all the wrong faces
But I’m gonna use the rest of my life
To prove into you those words were lies

Of the million things a heart can hold
And of all the things I’ve come to know
A love

I need love
I can’t see
I’ll be alright with you now by my side
And if tomorrow you’re gone
And I still go on
I promise to spend the rest of me on you

People say we are where we belong
We hold each other’s hands as if we’re holding on
And to me, a little of your you
Is like a little bit of sun makes the moon

For “if’s” we plan around become “when’s”
a center of narrows and bends
a love
I need love
I can’t see enough
And I’ll be alright with you now by my side
If tomorrow you’re gone
And I still go on to spend the rest of me on you

And if there ever was a shred of doubt
It’s hopelessly romantic now
And I hope the time can slow us down
And the minutes pass and the hours now
With all the clocks counting down to love

I need love
I can’t see enough
And I’ll be alright
With you now by my side
And if tomorrow you’re gone and I still go on
I promise to spend the rest of me on you
