I Want to Get Married

I want to get married

I want to have a big wedding of my own

I want to sing with the birds in the sky

With the love of my life

I want a guy of my own

I want to be happy

Like the pictures in the magazines

Where the bride wears white with happy tears in her eyes

While she's drinking champagne

But how can I say, "I do"

When I'm feeling so borrowed and blue?

I want a kiss that feels brand new

I want the honey on the honeymoon

How can I say, "I do"

When I know the words are so untrue?

I want to get married

Just not to you

If you could throw a football

Over a mountain like Manning back then

If you could dance in the rain

Like Gene Kelly and sing like Sinatra did

I wouldn't need a diamond

Brighter than Paul Newman's eyes

If you had a private plane, we'd eat tapas in Spain

I'd be a dedicated wife

But how can I say, "I do"

When I'm feeling so borrowed and blue?

I want a kiss that feels brand new

I want the honey on the honeymoon

How can I say, "I do"

When all the words are so untrue?

I want to get married

Just not to you

I want my daddy to cry

'Cause he's got doubt in his eyes

Over giving me away for good

I want my mom and her friends

To be jealous again

Like when the prom king

Married the girl who wasn't cool

Back in high school

How can I say, "I do"

When I'm feeling so broken and blue?

I want a kiss that feels brand new

I want the honey on the honeymoon

How can I say, "I do"

When all the words are untrue?

I want to get married

Just not to you

I want to get married

Just not to you
