Wedding Bell Lyrics

Hello
You're humming tomorrow's never songs
But you're singing the only words you know
Would you cry, if I lied, told a tale

I chose, yeah
You're ringing the only wedding bell
And we're swimming the seas we've known so well
I've tried, to stay alive, in our bed, in our heads
Oh, but your wish is my command

Ahhh, is your heart still mine to sail?
I
Enjoy
Nothing
Ahhh

I chose, yeah
You're ringing the only wedding bell
And we're swimming the seas we've known so well
I've tried, to stay alive, in our bed, in our heads
Oh, but your wish is my command

I think this song is about a couple that has been together for a long time, in which one of them wants to get married, and the other one agrees without really wanting it deep inside, or feeling deeply insecure about his/her feelings, but agrees due to the safeness, comfort, certainty and fear of hurting the other person.

Happens a lot.

A beautiful sad song

My Interpretation

"Oh; Is you're heart still mine to sail?"

That's what I hear and I like it.

"Humming you're humming tomorrow's nursery rhyme"

*I hear: "Hopppp ... you're hoping tomorrow's never (?)"

"I tried to stay in line in our deaths in our heads"

*I hear: "I try to stay alive, in our bed, in our head."

"Oh, is your heart still mine for sale?"

*I hear: Oh, is your heart still mine to save?

(maybe I just like that better).


I apologize if these are the official lyrics, my ears have deceived me before. If so, I'm sure someone will clarify. Thanks for putting this up.

I'm addicted to this song. Especially that funky little melody after "Is your heart still mine ..." I've had that in my head all day.

Brilliant song, brilliant artists, can't wait to see them live :)

Zoolah:

After 'I enjoy' do you think it may be 'I enjoy nothing more'? It is really hard to determine because that part is sung so high, but I thought it sounded like that

Oh, is your heart still mine to assail?

This fits the best.

One of your favorite bands and a wedding song. I don't suggest it for an official ceremony, although the one I selected for my wedding awhile back was not conventional either (which may be why the singers changed it w/o telling us:( Here's to all the happy people who love marriage. More power to them 'cause it's not for me.

This couple obviously has been together and perhaps lived together for quite some time. They get married and one of them realizes it was just because of comfort and complacency. The marriage is repetitive lacking zeal hence swimming the seas we know so well. The person has this revelation yet stays because of possibly not wanting to lose the comfort or hurting the individual - Is your heart still mine to save?

Hello You're hoping tomorrow's never saw But you're singing the only words you know Would you cry, if I lied, told a tale?

I chose, yeah You're ringing the only wedding bell And we're swimming the seas we know so well I tried, to stay alive, in our beds, in our heads Oh, but your wish is my command

Ahhh, is your heart still mine to sail? I met you/I enjoy Nothing more Ahhh

I chose, yeah You're ringing the only wedding bell And we're swimming the seas we know so well I tried, to stay alive, in our beds, in our heads Oh, but your wish is my command
