Wedding Singer

[Verse 1: Jake Ewald]

Find it hard to believe tonight

In a curiously well-kept house built before I was born

This year, we're gonna stamp out the sorry feeling

Rain on summer vacation

Five blocks from Tasker-Morris Station

Fucked for the ride home if I can't find two bills

To rub together before

[Chorus: Jake Ewald]

Midnight rolls around

I thought you heard me sing your spirit's sound

But you turned in early

Left the TV flickering its staged romance across your face

[Verse 2: Jake Ewald]

Said goodbye from the front porch

I always wonder if you're smiling at us or if you're looking away

I'd ask, but either way, I feel sorry for you

Locked your love in a screenshot

They don't work that way

But I've been wishing I could say that I don't

The selfish side likes to think my execution's more

Of an honest one

These artists all cut cloth with underscored conviction

Blacked-out friction flies me back to Baltimore to wait for you

But I'm stuck here, too

[Chorus: Jake Ewald]

Until midnight rolls around

I thought you heard me sing your spirit's sound

But you turned in early

Left the TV flickering its staged romance across your face
