Speak Now letra

I am not the kind of girlWho should be rudely barging inOn a white veil occasionBut you are not the kind of boyWho should be marrying the wrong girl
I sneak in and see your friendsAnd her snotty little familyAll dressed in pastelAnd she is yelling at a bridesmaidSomewhere back inside a roomWearing a gown shaped like a pastry
This isSurely not what you thought it would beAnd I lose myself in a daydreamWhere I stand and say
Chorus:Don't say yes, run away nowI'll meet you when you're outOf the church at the back doorDon't wait or say a single vowYou need to hear me outAnd they said "speak now"
Fond gestures are exchangedAnd the organ starts to playA song that sounds like a deathmarch
And I am hiding in the curtainsIt seems that I was uninvitedBy your lovely bride-to-be
She floats down the aisleLike a pageant queen.But I know you wish it was meYou wish it was me (Don't cha?)
Chorus:Don't say yes, run away nowI'll meet you when you're outOf the church at the back doorDon't wait or say a single vowYou need to hear me outAnd they said "speak now"
 Chorus:
Don't say yes, run away nowI'll meet you when you're outOf the church at the back doorDon't wait or say a single vowYour time is running outAnd they said, "speak now"
Oh Oh Oh! ( said speak now.... )
I hear the preacher say"Speak now or forever hold your peace"There's the silence, there's my last chanceI stand up with shaking handsAll eyes on me
Horrified looks fromEveryone in the roomBut I'm only looking at you.
I am not the kind of girlWho should be rudely barging inOn a white veil occasionBut you are not the kind of boyWho should be marrying the wrong girl!
Chorus:So don't say yes, run away nowI'll meet you when you're outOf the church at the back doorDon't wait or say a single vowYou need to hear me outAnd they said, "speak now!"
And you sayLet's run away nowI'll meet you when I'm outOf my tux at the back door
Baby, I didn't say my vowsSo glad you were around when they saidSpeak Now
