I Know Im Getting Married, by Don't build lies on ice cubes. Subscribe to rss feed for Don't build lies on ice cubes.

I'm getting married soon
Without an engagement ring
I know I'm getting married soon
And I'll get to dance at my wedding

But my groom he hasnt asked me
And Ive already chosen a dress
I sort of booked a venue to
Which could end up being a financial mess...

But what the hell everyone I'm getting married!
Send me best wishes on a card
Better post it to my mums address
No need to make my relationship hard

I went to taste the cake today
Thats what made it final I think
And Im just counting the seconds now til he asks
Until he gives me that eternal link

It better be a platinum ring
I think gold is tacky you know
Oh I racked up a huge phonebill this week
Informing everyone to wait for the show

Except he still hasnt asked me
The guy who cleans my windows said its fine
He said he made his missus wait fifteen years
So eventually that groom will be mine

Im slightly concerned about the flowers
If he doesnt ask soon then they might die
Maybe I could just have those fake ones
Although without real flowers I might cry

Oh everyone in the world that Ive met 
You need to know Im getting married this year
So make you sure you plan nothing this summer
For I will want you to be near

So you can go "isnt she beautiful"
As I waltz down the aisle
Actually on second thoughts I shouldnt waltz
Best to do it with some style

He really is going to ask me you know
I dont understand that look in your eyes
He says he loves me every time he screws up
And he apologises for the fact he lies

And ive forgiven him for all the cheating
I know he comes across a lazy lout
But he's going to ask me just you wait and see 
And then I will never be without

For I'll be married then you see
A wife. I'll have a name.
I'll belong to a group of people who are happy
And I'll never be the same

Anyway I just wanted to tell you
That I am going to get married any day
Its going to be the best day of my life
And you'll be there to wish me on my way

I was actually being slightly sarcastic when I wrote this; one of my friends is slightly deluded! Sorry if it didn't come through in the way it should have done!

It is sadly funny how real this situation often is. I really enjoyed reading this.
