Speak Now Lyrics - Taylor Swift

1 I am not the kind of girl

2 Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion

3 But you are not the kind of boy

4 Who should be marrying the wrong girl

5 I sneak in and see your friends

6 And her snotty little family all dressed in pastel

7 And she is yelling at a bridesmaid

8 Somewhere back inside a room

9 Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry

10 This is surely not what you thought it would be

11 I lose myself in a daydream

12 Where I stand and say

13 Don’t say "Yes", run away now

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

15 Don’t wait or say a single vow

16 You need to hear me out

17 And they said, "Speak now"

18 Fond gestures are exchanged

19 And the organ starts to play

20 A song that sounds like a death march

21 And I am hiding in the curtains

22 It seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-be

23 She floats down the aisle like a pageant queen

24 But I know you wish it was me

25 You wish it was me, don’t you?

26 Don’t say "Yes", run away now

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

28 Don’t wait or say a single vow

29 You need to hear me out

30 And they said, "Speak now"

31 Don’t say "Yes", run away now

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

33 Don’t wait or say a single vow

34 Your time is running out

35 And they said, "Speak now"

36 Oh, run away

37 La la, oh oh

38 Say a single vow

39 I hear the preacher say, "Speak now or forever hold your peace"

40 There’s the silence, there’s my last chance

41 I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me

42 Horrified looks from everyone in the room

43 But I’m only looking at you

44 I am not the kind of girl

45 Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion

46 But you are not the kind of boy

47 Who should be marrying the wrong girl

48 Don’t say "Yes", run away now

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

50 Don’t wait or say a single vow

51 You need to hear me out

52 And they said, "Speak now"

53 And you’ll say "Let’s run away now

54 I’ll meet you when I’m out of my tux at the back door

55 Baby, I didn’t say my vows

56 So glad you were around

57 When they said, 'Speak now'"
