i won’t be at your wedding
but i’ll be giving you away
he’ll carry you off
this saturday

i wanted to be like him
no i just wished that he was me
i asked you for forever
i’ll settle for a history

you said if i really loved you
i’d let you go be happy

so you’ll walk slowly down the aisle
clutching a bright blue bouquet
and you won’t even notice me gone
the man giving you away
