lyrics

As I stand in place in my tailored suit, I look at the crowd then back at you. I swear to God you never looked so beautiful. My hands begin to tremble and shake as you read the vows we made. For better or for worse, to have and to hold, "I do." I love her to death, 'til death do us part, As I reflect on the past, no love will fix this broken heart. To fill the void of a boy running from home. A burden too complex for my young mind to hold. Only time will tell, only time will tell what we have lost. Only time will tell, only time will mend this broken heart. Only time will tell, only time will tell what we have lost. We must beat the sands of time before we find ourselves buried underneath. Now that light that brought you such hope haunts me every night. And those docks we passed on our walks, send shivers down my spine like the fog off the coast. I never deserved to take the place of a man who died to keep his family safe. His daughter looks to me to be the father that I'll never be, a husband to the wife who's love died at sea. A burden too complex for my young mind.
