My Turn
My Turn
October 16, 1998
I want to get married, have I mentioned that before
I could have been married for years now
It would be nice to have the ceremony, though,
and the flowers at the aisles, and the bride and
the bridesmaids would carry the flowers
and the men would have corsages, too
I wonder if they would have to pin their own
flowers on their tuxedos or if someone
would have to help them and do it for them
I don't know enough about marriages so I have to ask
maybe I'd have something read during the wedding
I'd have to plan that out when I actually
have the hope of getting married

my father is arguing about an insurance bill
with someone over the phone now
this is what I'm reduced to
I'm wondering when it's going to be my turn
I'm wondering when the bad news for me if going to stop
I'm wondering if there's any chance I won't always be
alone
I'm wondering if there's anyone out there for me
When does it become my turn
