I should have told you all I wanted was to have some fun |
|
(to have some fun) |
|
but you wanted me to be the permanent one |
|
(the permanent one) |
|
yes you did |
|
Now when we're in the movies or the back of a car |
|
you always stop me when I go too far |
|
I should have known you'd always keep me waiting |
|
for those wedding bells |
|
those wedding bells |
|
Oh we could talk all night but you won't understand |
|
(don't leave me in the lurch today) |
|
the only words you want to hear are "Do you take this man?" |
|
(in church today) |
|
Does the lull in conversation mean the penny's droppin'? |
|
you should have known that I was only window shoppin' |
|
it's my clumsy way of sayin' that we should be stoppin' |
|
those wedding bells |
|
those wedding bells |
|
I'm like a square peg in a round hole |
|
I don't belong here baby |
|
don't need a fanfare or a drum roll |
|
to tell you baby |
|
I don't belong to you baby |
|
Oh you say it's not important but I know what you're thinkin' |
|
'cos every time we kiss I feel your kisses stingin' |
|
In the back of my mind I know you'll always be ringin' |
|
those wedding bells |
|
those wedding bells |
|
I knew I should have told you all I wanted was to have some fun |
|
(that was yesterday) |
|
but you wanted me to be the permanent one |
|
(say yes today) |
|
Oh I'd do it but the pleasure isn't worth the pain |
|
we'd run out of track before we got on the train |
|
can't you hear the sound of heartstrings snappin' under the strain |
|
of those wedding bells |
|
those wedding bells |
|
those wedding bells |
|
those wedding bells... |
