lyrics
"Wedding Day"
I remember my wedding day
A borrowed car and a week no pay
High as hell on the mountain that day
Where nothing grows under the pines
Smoking on the balcony ignoring all the signs
Bought some chains when the storm came in
Stared at the flames and we drank some gin
I couldn’t tell you about a ditch I was in
Just prayed you wouldn’t change your mind
Rattling the motel bed and spilling all the wine
If they could take me back
Be on a one way track to you
Said if they would take me back
Be on a one way track to you
Our long shadows in the winter sun
Those new age vows taken for no one
Next time I’ll swear under a god and his son
For nothing’s growing under these pines
I’m smoking on the balcony ignoring all the signs
Against a tree with your knees curled up
Drinking water from an old tin cup
Like the outlaw, should have stayed holed up
I wished we stayed back in those times
Racing to Los Angeles to wait in all the lines
But if I could take me back
Be on a one way track to you
Said if they could take me back
Be on a one way track to you
If they would take me back
Be on a one way track to you
Said if I could change your mind
Bring you back in time to me
So I remember my wedding day
I remember my wedding day
A borrowed car and a week no pay
High as hell on the mountain that day
Where nothing grows under the pines
Smoking on the balcony ignoring all the signs
Bought some chains when the storm came in
Stared at the flames and we drank some gin
I couldn’t tell you about a ditch I was in
Just prayed you wouldn’t change your mind
Rattling the motel bed and spilling all the wine
If they could take me back
Be on a one way track to you
Said if they would take me back
Be on a one way track to you
Our long shadows in the winter sun
Those new age vows taken for no one
Next time I’ll swear under a god and his son
For nothing’s growing under these pines
I’m smoking on the balcony ignoring all the signs
Against a tree with your knees curled up
Drinking water from an old tin cup
Like the outlaw, should have stayed holed up
I wished we stayed back in those times
Racing to Los Angeles to wait in all the lines
But if I could take me back
Be on a one way track to you
Said if they could take me back
Be on a one way track to you
If they would take me back
Be on a one way track to you
Said if I could change your mind
Bring you back in time to me
So I remember my wedding day
