Vanessa Carlton I Don't Want To Be A Bride lyrics

I like your company
Got a fresh philosophy
Never knew you're such a gentleman

You could take me on a cheap vacation
I don't wanna have expectations
'Cause you could be the end of me

I don't need a house on a hill
Swing on a tree, grandfather clock
Porcelain for tea, a garden with rose and jasmine

Gonna get drunk on a bottle of wine
No better way to pass the time
Forever by your side

But I don't wanna be a bride
Apologies to your mother
I wanna be your girl
And spend this life with you

But I don't wanna wear white
You know it's too late for that
Can we keep the ever after?
Could it be?

Don't need no golden ring
It'd be no match for the love you bring
From London to Tennessee

We could catch a train to another life
On a whim under the moonlight

I promise you, will you promise me?

Our last names on a wooden sign
Arm and arm where the river starts to wind
Forever by your side

But I don't wanna be a bride
Apologies to each other
I wanna be your girl
And spend this life with you

But I don' t wanna wear white
We know it's too late for that
But can we keep the ever after?
Oh, could it be? Just you and me

We will live like kings under lavender
Skies, skies
We will live like kings under lavender
Skies, skies

We will build a poem, we kept a rhyme
Wrapped our love in golden twine
We wrote, we wrote a legacy

Just you and me
Just you and me
We will
