as she walks down the isle with her pasted on smile
she can see her haters glaring at her, yet all the while
and she gives them what they want, a show
she kisses tom and dick she plays the hoe
too well indeed
their anticipation she feeds
them the lie that has now become a truth
the seed of an idea has now become the root,
of truth
and midway she finds herself trapped
between the lover of yesterday
and the lover of tomorrow
pondering how to please them both
but all along she knows
to be truly happy she most let one go
she looks at the joys of tomorrow
she sees her success, she sees her at her best,
she sees her pasting this test,
she sees her family and friends
and they're happy and she's happy too
then yesterday says, if you chose tomorrow you'll be a fool
you've tried what i had to offer
and with this knowledge you are smarter
you know my pleasures are real
because you've felt how they feel
and they make your knees tremble
she made her decision and they became a couple
as they met at the alter
hand in hand so married her yesterday
because she could not let go of her old ways.
