Southern Wedding

Pack your things
We’re going to a southern wedding
It’s a long drive
From here

There’ll be old cars
And flowers
And dancing
Late in the night

She was a waitress
I was just 20
She was from nashville
I was just lost

We went out
On a lost night
She was getting married
But she didn’t love him

It was all she needed
It was all I needed
It was one night
Never repeated
It was one night
Never repeated

The world was changing shape and form
On the day that you were born
She wrote to say that she was gone
Time and time again

It was all she needed
It was all I needed
It was one night

Just like a secret

Pack your things
We’re going to a southern wedding
It’s a long drive from here
