Lyrics

We got married on the same day under the same grey sky
You were in your world, I was just standing in whatever was left of mine
Somebody made the mistake of saying your name and mine in the same breath
In a big, white dress I am dying a slow, slow death, we got married

Just like a bad dream I was suffocating in the vaccuum of the room
Watching the clock as the hands they were silently marching to my doom
I thought of your name in calligraphy etched on the invitation
Leaving a hole in my heart in the middle of my celebration, we got married

I rushed out to see your parade go by
The rain it's making its way into my eyes
Just as I turned my back to the street
The groom came looking for his bride so sweet

Nobody knew, even suspected I was paying attention
To the time, to the day, to the year of our permanent separation
Everybody wishing me well for the rest of my life
With your window rolled down your eyes silently said goodbye, when we got married
