Bouquet - Steve Taylor

She was the one who caught the bouquet

The best of her best friends' wedding day

She was the one who caught the bouquet

A token that God must want it that way

And on her quest for Mr. Right

She said «I do» where the lonely give in

They were married on the way, and oh

Nothing’s sadder than the words, «It might have been»

He was the one, but promises dull when Jesus becomes expendable

Expecting to find what never was there

But doesn’t it still beat solitaire?

She heard that time turns desire to love and that the Lord had it all in control

So marry two half-people, and oh

Shouldn’t one make the other whole?

Swallowing hard 'cos you knew better before

Desperate for someone to blame

And does it matter that he’s gone again?

Nothing’s sadder than the words «It might have been»

She was the one the bouquet deceived

Believer who never could believe

Now she’s the one who’s lonely again

She’s wondering how it might have been
