Wedding Song - The Courage

It’s the end of December and everything’s different

It’s better this way, I suppose

You with your white dress and me with my stage

We both got what we wanted, I know

But Sarah, my heart is a lighthouse

And you are the captain of ships

That were wrecked on my shores

When the light was turned low

Well, I heard you’d be married, the tenth of the new year

Your sister, she told to my friend

And I overheard them and I started freaking out

Knowing I could not pretend

That this isn’t happening, this can’t be real

It’s just words on a screen, or a picture I’ve seen in the dark

'Cause I’m still holding the pieces of your heart

Well, I haven’t seen you in over a year

I can’t even remember your face

But I pray that it’s smiling as you wear the ring

Of a man who was not such a waste

As all of the games that we played in the dark

When the stakes were too much, I called the bluff

With the fold of my hand

But I’m still holding the pieces of your heart

And low, low are the ways of a man

When he can’t wash the blood off his hand

So my palms to the wind

This is the end

Of holding the pieces of your heart

My palms to the wind

This is the end

Of holding the pieces of your heart
