Lyrics

Speak Now (SeoHyun)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I am not the kind of girl

Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion

But you are not the kind of boy

Who should be marrying the wrong girl

I sneak in and see your friends

And her snotty little family

All dressed in pastel

And she is yelling at a bridesmaid

Somewhere back inside a room

Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry

This is surely not what you thought it would be

And I lose myself in a daydream

Where I stand and say:

Don't say yes, run away now

I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door

Don't wait or say a single vow

You need to hear me out

And they said "speak now"

Fond gestures are exchanged

And the organ starts to play

A song that sounds like a deathmarch

And I am hiding in the curtains

It seems that I was uninvited

By your lovely bride-to-be

She floats down the aisle

Like a pageant queen.

But I know you wish it was me

You wish it was me (Don't you?)

Don't say yes, run away now

I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door

Don't wait or say a single vow

You need to hear me out

And they said "speak now"

Don't say yes, run away now

I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door

Don't wait or say a single vow

Your time is running out

And they said, "speak now"

I hear the preacher say:

"Speak now or forever hold your peace"

There's the silence, there's my last chance

I stand up with shaking hands

All eyes on me

Horrified looks from

Everyone in the room

But I'm only looking at you.

I am not the kind of girl

Who should be rudely barging in

On a white veil occasion

But you are not the kind of boy

Who should be marrying the wrong girl!

So don't say yes, run away now

I'll meet you when you're out

Of the church at the back door

Don't wait or say a single vow

You need to hear me out

And they said, "speak now!"

And you say:

Let's run away now

I'll meet you when I'm out

Of my tux at the back door

Baby, I didn't say my vows

So glad you were around when they said

Speak Now
