Tell me you love me 
It's okay to lie 
I just need to hear it in your voice 
One last time 

Tell me you miss me 
Even if you don't 
I just need to be okay 
For a while longer 

'Cause you were the girl 
I thought I'd marry 
Maybe even right after university 
Drop down on one knee and say 
And I know we agreed to wait 
Till we're twenty-eight 
But I can't wait 

So why am I still singing
About marrying you
Sure you'd look good in white 
But I won't be at the end of your aisle 
In a bespoke suit 
Everyone watching, but my eyes 
Only for you 
You won't pull on my lapels to bring me into the kiss 
That means you'll always love me even if we're poor and sick 
So why am I still singing 

Drive past your house
I just need a peek 
Are you laying in your bed with someone
Who's not me 

Do your parents love him 
The way they did me 
'Cause I always felt 
Like family 

'Cause you were the girl 
I thought I'd marry 
Maybe even right after graduation 
Drop down on one knee and say 
I know I can't afford a ring 
But I can't wait 
What do you say

So why am I still singing
About marrying you
Sure you'd look good in white 
But I won't be at the end of your aisle 
In a bespoke suit 
Everyone watching, but my eyes 
Only for you 
You won't pull on my lapels to bring me into the kiss 
That means you'll always love me even if we're poor and sick 
So why am I still singing 

And I know if we got back together, you'd only leave me at the altar 
Making jokes, about your dad's watch running slow 
And I know if we got back together, you'd only leave me at the altar 
Hoping you'd show 

'Cause you were the girl 
I thought I'd marry 
Told you in Case Hall 
We had plans for next fall 
One day I'd take the train out west 
Dressed in my Sunday best 
Ready, to get my knee dirty

So why am I still singing
About marrying you
Sure you'd look good in white 
But I won't be at the end of your aisle 
In a bespoke suit 
Everyone watching, but my eyes 
Only for you 
You won't pull on my lapels to bring me into the kiss 
That means you'll always love me even if we're poor and sick 
So why am I still singing
