The Bride Lyrics

by Dirty Projectors

an anonymous bouquet
raised a longing in the bride
beckoning everyone in for the good news that
no one has any good reason to live

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e98603-dirty_projectors~the_bride_lyrics.html ]
tears of laughter did pervade
your ambivalent behavior
where was your diamond engaged but an instinct
could be written over like a page
in a dead book, yeah

whose cascading empathy
could really reach beyond tomorrow
and when the tear ducts dry up
when the clarion calls
will be anyone listening at all
