»wedding day«
on your wedding day all your loves
have come to stay
you worry about them all
if they have enough, if they are comfortable
you take care of the men
while you defuse all the women
you wash their clothes and cook their food
but still they plan and push and pull at you
but only one remembers
that you thought about this for a year
and only one will tell them
that this day belongs to you
and the mothers fight cause they can't let go
and the fathers stand guard cause they don't know what to do
and the maid she walks tall
but she will cry when she's away from it all
that man saw it in you
he admired what they took for granted
he held his own while they took advantage
and so he'll stand right next to you
but only one will notice
all you do to keep the peace
and only one knows how
you have to work to love them all
and the mothers fight cause they can't let go
and the fathers stand guard cause they don't know what to do
and the maid she walks tall
but she will cry when she's away from it all
