Novia a La Fuga
Melendi
Runaway Bride
Wedding bells are ringing
And the bride still has doubts
She no longer finds the reasons
Neither in white nor naked.
What was once blind love
Is now enveloped in madness
What was once a 'yes, I do'
Is being killed by doubt.
And at the altar
Her heart beats again
But she doesn't know if it's love
Or loneliness.
And the truth is
The more time passed
The less time she had
To escape.
And she ran away naked
Throwing her dress at the bald priest
And she ran away from the man
Who had made her a nameless woman.
And in the vestry
The in-laws cried, the parents laughed
Because she was the most beautiful runaway bride
Ever conceived.
She prefers sunrises
To any honeyless moons
For it's just a week
Not worth a bitter life.
'What do we do now?' said the father-in-law
'If I've already paid for the banquet'
'Get out of my sight, you fool'
'I'd rather have my daughter than some canapés.'
And at the altar
Her heart beats again
But she doesn't know if it's love
Or loneliness.
And the truth is
The more time passed
The less time she had
To escape.
And she ran away naked
Throwing her dress at the bald priest
And she ran away from the man
Who had made her a nameless woman.
And in the vestry
The in-laws cried, the parents laughed
Because she was the most beautiful runaway bride
Ever conceived.
