My Bride
(c) 2002 Robin Renée

My Bride is restless
She waits for our day
And I twist up the telephone wire
Maybe I’m nervous- She’s self-assured
And she’s quiet, but never retiring
She speaks with all of her voice
Without compromises- She’s full of surprises

My Bride- so beautiful
We sing at the altar
No longer lovers at odds
At the end of the party, revealing ourselves
In the eyes of the state and the gods

And I’ve seen people carry on
Oh so aimlessly
I have seen all that’s good in humanity- Everything we can be
Let it be you and me

My Bride is wearing white
He loves tradition
But doesn’t much care for the rules
He stands beside me so confidently
As he slips past his childhood foolish lies
I see the allure of his veil
And I embrace all of him-
Every embroidered detail

And I’ve seen people carry on
Oh so aimlessly
I have seen all that’s good in humanity- Everything we can be
Let it be you and me

My Bride fixes his stockings
Beneath the gown that he bought and I see for the first time today

Maybe we’ll marry one day
Maybe I’ll marry one day
