Amber Roper - Ex To The Wedding Lyrics

Put on my sparkliest dress
Put on my very best shoes
Spent an hour in the mirror trying
To look my prettiest for you
My sis said you could be the one
And you were stuck inside my head
Five years since I've seen you
I know I left a lot unsaid

Wore my most expensive perfume
Had my hair braided up nice
But nothing could've prepared me
For when I looked right by your side

Yeah I tried playing it cool
When I saw you walk in the room
But the moment that it clicked
My stomach felt impending doom

You brought your ex to the wedding
Brought your ex to where I dreamed
You and I would end up dancing
Laughing loud, you're twirling me
You brought your ex to the wedding
Now I guess you'll never see
Oh how it could've been
Should've been
Would've been
Maybe me

I know your family doesn't like her
But they grew up loving me
I even wrote a song about ya
Now you'll never get to see, nah
It's the tears I shed that night
In the shower where I broke
Could barely say a word to you
I didn't want to choke

Yeah I hope she ends up worth it
Promise I'm moving on and away
I think the part that hurts the most is
I'll never get the time of day
Yeah I know I'm far from perfect
But God knows I'm pretty great
I'm not the girl you saw at thirteen
But you just wait

He looked into my eyes
Said great to see you my friend
Little did he know
He'll never see me again

I don't want to be in the same town you are
That's why I'm on this flight, yeah I'm going really far

He brought his ex to the wedding
Brought his ex to where I dreamed
Him and I would end up dancing
Holding hands, he's twirling me
He brought his ex to the wedding
Now I guess he'll never see
Oh how it could've been me
Should've been
Would've been
Maybe me
