| I still recall
|
| The awful clanging of those wedding bells
|
| I prayed your Billy would go straight to hell
|
| That Sunday morning
|
| Yes I did compete
|
| With the heart of a fool but I must retreat
|
| Go back to Nashville lay down in the street
|
| As a final warning
|
| Your love is gone
|
| For me, for you, and for everyone
|
| Kidnap the moon, assassinate the sun
|
| It’s time for mourning
|
| Well I can stand the winter and the blazing heat
|
| I can stand the riots in the city streets
|
| My love for you will stand the test of time
|
| The happiest day of your life
|
| Was the worst day of mine
|
| I stood in the park
|
| Like a photograph until way after dark
|
| In a rented suit holding my homeless heart
|
| In the freezing summer
|
| Could not stand the test
|
| Choked on the words, 'I wish you the best'
|
| Walked away and put my gifts with the rest
|
| But my box was empty
|
| Well I can stand the winter and the blazing heat
|
| I can stand the riots in the city streets
|
| My love for you will stand the test of time
|
| The happiest day of your life
|
| Was the worst day of mine
|
| Eighty-six Fahrenheit
|
| I stand alone in the punishing light
|
| Burning the thought of you out of my mind
|
| But it ain’t working
|
| I love you babe
|
| First time I said it I was so afraid
|
| Wish I’d said it on your wedding day
|
| Life would be amazing
|
| Well I can stand the winter and the blazing heat
|
| I can stand the riots in the city streets
|
| My love for you will stand the test of time
|
| The happiest day of your life |
