Good Intentions Lyrics

It's not my intention to keep you here forever, but I'll see you on your birthday when you're getting older. And I'll be at your wedding - that could have been me you're kissing. And isn't this the perfect time to tell you all how I feel? I'll shorten my speech and say that I'm not sorry. You're always a burden. You're sad this is working. You're always a burden.

This is my recital - just a little too late. Yeah, yeah. I spent too much time thinking of what to say and not saying what I think. It's time to vent - time to get this off my chest.

I think it's time to speak my mind now - open my mouth and let this go, but you don't want to hear what I think, so I'll stick to what I know. I've got a reputation to protect and another to destroy. This is my last chance to break you before you go on your own.

I think about this all the time. If I could find the words to rhyme, I'd tell about our destined future in unconventional sentence structure. Blinded by the foresight and the fact that we were never right. This is not the end of us, but it's the end of this discussion.

These h'orderves taste like regret as I stare from across the room at you in your white dress that accentuates your breasts - watching as you talk and mingle with your guests. Because that could have been me. That could have been me. That could have been me that you're standing there with giving awkward hugs to relatives you didn't know existed. This watered down punch in expensive crystal stemware seems odd and out of place, quite like me, because I'm not up there with you, reciting vows and saying, ?I do.? That should have been me you're kissing
