My grandpa’s ring, your mother’s dress Your sister’s shoes, my father’s vest I’m just trying to keep myself composed Making promises in borrowed clothes I’ll be black and you be white I’ll be left and you be right I’ll be the Oregon coast, you be Eastern Time We’ll move mountains when we compromise You’re the one I’ll love from now until we die And I can’t wait to start this new life So let the song begin While all the candles shake Whatever’s past is gone We’ve got a brand new slate Forever’s on our tongues No matter what it taken And I am not afraid So smile for every shot they take Raise a glass and slice the cake There’s a car outside with cans in wake Leave our families here to celebrate Playing house like we always said You paint the walls, I’ll build a bed There’s no rush, let all the boxes wait We’ve got years to get the rooms arranged You’re the one I’ll love from now until we die And I’m not even trying to shake this smile So let the song begin while all the candles shake Whatever’s past is gone; we’ve got a brand new slate Forever’s on our tongues No matter what it takes And I am not afraid
