Something Blue
Something old, something new
Something borrowed, something blue
My dearest Claire, I love you
Please keep that in mind
And I could never cause you pain
I'm just so terrified
Cause when the wedding's over
And we're back behind closed doors
What if we wake up and we're not happy anymore
I don't want our marriage to reflect a brief sunset
But what if the horizon brings hardships and regret
For three months now I've kept these fears
All bottled up inside
Each night my pillow caught the tears
I didn't let you hear me cry
Something old
What about your mother's wedding dress
Something new
Your handmade veil
But it needs another press
Something borrowed, earrings
Your sister cries with glee
That brings us to something blue
And something blue is me
I'm passing down the corridor
Praying there's still time
Your brother stops me with a laugh
It's bad luck to see the bride
He's the one who set us up
My best friend since we were five
I always looked up to him but
I can't meet his eyes
I hear the service starting now
I'm terrified to move
I'm not sure what might come out
If asked to say I do
Something old
What about your favorite high-heeled shoes
Something new, a handkerchief
Your cousin made for you
Something borrowed, a hair clip
All the way from Germany
That brings us to something blue
And something blue is me
You never make it down the aisle
There's silence in the room
By now you've found my letter
And what's a bride without her groom
Something old, something new
Something borrowed, something blue
Something borrowed, something blue
My dearest Claire, I love you
Please keep that in mind
And I could never cause you pain
I'm just so terrified
Cause when the wedding's over
And we're back behind closed doors
What if we wake up and we're not happy anymore
I don't want our marriage to reflect a brief sunset
But what if the horizon brings hardships and regret
For three months now I've kept these fears
All bottled up inside
Each night my pillow caught the tears
I didn't let you hear me cry
Something old
What about your mother's wedding dress
Something new
Your handmade veil
But it needs another press
Something borrowed, earrings
Your sister cries with glee
That brings us to something blue
And something blue is me
I'm passing down the corridor
Praying there's still time
Your brother stops me with a laugh
It's bad luck to see the bride
He's the one who set us up
My best friend since we were five
I always looked up to him but
I can't meet his eyes
I hear the service starting now
I'm terrified to move
I'm not sure what might come out
If asked to say I do
Something old
What about your favorite high-heeled shoes
Something new, a handkerchief
Your cousin made for you
Something borrowed, a hair clip
All the way from Germany
That brings us to something blue
And something blue is me
You never make it down the aisle
There's silence in the room
By now you've found my letter
And what's a bride without her groom
Something old, something new
Something borrowed, something blue
