At the Celebration

We gathered at the lake
The bride arrived a little late
Clouds were blowing in
But it didn't matter
The groom said his vows
The father of the bride laughed out loud
Then the rings exchanged
Cause some things never change
The thunder clapped the rain
A glass was shattered

And mama is trying to keep her face on straight
And the cameraman is on MDMA
Turn the music up
Drown another cup
Whispering to the future
Impossible

We hit the road that night
The fog was thick in our headlights
Remembering our day
At the cathedral
Opportunity was there
But we didn't have a prayer
Oh my love is far
The little things are getting hard
Like passing through the eye of a needle

And mama is finishing off her fifth drink
Now she'll tell you what she really thinks
The odds are slim to none
At least we're having fun
Leaning into the future
Impossible

Praise be to the bride and groom
As they go stumbling to a darkened room
Given half a chance
They'll stake it all on that
Racing into the future
Unstoppable
