story behind the song: for a friendette. (advice no, observations yes)
Lyrics
you won't need something old
or something blue
you won't find love bought or sold,
or something just to do
you won't be dressed in white
though that would be quite you
are you afraid or just content
'cause you know his love is true
you won't need to make a list
or to take a vow
you won't find love in a kit
instructions with it now
you won't be left down the aisle
waiting there too proud
are you wary or do you smile
'cause he'd love you any how
you won't need to change at all
or into someone else
you won't find love comes when called
nor listens when you shout
you won't be without your friends
though they will come and go
are you scared, want to forget
he loves you and you know
are you afraid or just content
'cause he'd love you any how
are you wary or do you smile
'cause he loved you, then and now
are you scared, want to forget
he's loved you all the while
are you afraid or just content
to keep living in denial
