Mt. Desolation - Bridal Gown

Girl your voice has been
the music of my life
since we were kids
without a fear or dream.

Playing up for cine films
On our new bikes we spun our wheels
down the alleys, through the fields,

and as for love
nothing was further from our minds,
time was endless
and it was the best of times.

And as the years went speeding by
you were not always at my side
but you were ever in my mind.

It seemed our stars were tightly bound
from time to time we fooled around
I picked you up, I put you down

Until the moment
I saw you in your bridal gown
I just assumed
that you would always be around.


And the ground beneath my feet
became an endless empty street
Because I'd assumed
that you would always be around.


Our features change, no longer smooth
gone is the leanness of our youth
but when you swept into that room

you were glowing
barely recognizable
Of course I loved you but I'd had no idea at all


And the ground beneath my feet
became an endless empty street
Because I'd been thinking
that you would always be around.

Spoiled child I could not see
what was standing in front of me
and now it’s too late,
you're standing in your bridal gown.


Till the moment I saw you in your bridal gown
I just assumed that
you would always be around
I just assumed that
you would always be around.
