Baby's Getting Married Today, (Reengineered) Lyrics

Baby’s getting married today

In a church

Down by the bay

No, I wasn’t invited to go

But I don’t think

I would have gone anyway

Baby said we just needed space

To get back to where we’d been

But too much distance

And times gone by

And now we’ll

Never be together again

Been a long time

Guess I was hoping

She’d come to her senses

And come home

Baby’s getting married today

Guess I’ll have to get used to

Living alone

Living alone

Baby’s getting married today

To some

High-powered business man

They say

No, I never got

Introduced to that guy

But I’ve no desire

To meet him anyway

Baby must have been

Beguiled by him

And his station in life

For her to drop everything

And forget all we had

And fall in love

In the blink of an eye

Could she love him

Knowing him

For such a short time

It’s not like her

But I don’t know

Baby’s getting married today

And now

I’m gonna be alone

Really alone

Hmm

Baby’s getting married today

Just saying those things

Hurts my head

And what other words

Could I possibly

Come up with now

That didn’t already get said

Baby was always

So danged sure

Things would be fine

Eventually

Well, that’s okay for her

But I’m still figuring out how

To go about without that

Her in me

Been a long time

But I guess I was hoping

She’d change her mind

And come home

Baby’s getting married today

So I’ll have to get used to

Being alone

Being alone

Hmm

Being alone

Baby’s getting married today

And it’s all my fault

That things went this way

I guess I never realized

How much she meant to me

I never really told her

How much I loved her

And now she’s gone away

There’s an emptiness in my heart

That has nowhere to go

She was the reason

I called this place home

Hey, Baby’s getting married today

And now I’m gonna

Have to get used to

Being alone

Being alone

Being alone
