I first saw her under the mistletoe - 
Sitting, waiting, hoping, forsaken, hiding, crying, or dying
I wasn't sure which then, 

and to tell you the truth
I still don't know to this day.

All I know is that was the best chance I've ever taken
and that the first kiss is the greatest
and that no one's ever kissed me that way.

And now we've carved 
our names in
a tree once again
We never let it erode away
Right by our tree
"Will you marry me?"
I don't know what she's going to say

The walk down the aisle's
like us walking miles
I just can't wait for it to end
Just so you can say
the answer you may
I'm waiting for our life to begin

The awe of yes, the rejection of no
The guess of maybe's
crippling blow
The indifference of sure
you get and you've got
With a smile, I've got a million thoughts
I think it's a coin flip-
Will marriages last
I think we'll make it
but I just had to ask
I think I was blind 
before I saw you
And deaf 'fore I heard
you speak like you do
And nothing was felt
without you in my veins
And all I wonder
is do you feel the same?

The awe of yes, the rejection of no
The guess of maybe's
crippling blow
The indifference of sure
you get and you've got
Nothing is worse than that or why not?
All of the nods 

and shakes of the head
The body language 

I bodily dread
The petulant yeas and certainly nots
Sometimes life's
Not like you thought

But sometimes it is
Love's perfect and kind
You see all the love 

that's always been blind
You need nothing else
You just love when you're near her
The I love you's left 
on the steamed bathroom mirror

Where only death 
could ever 
take her away
You ask the doctor to say what he may
The awe of a yes
The rejection of no
The guess of maybe's 
crippling blow
The petulant yea's and certainly not's
I dont know's indecisively thought

I hear an all right
so ostensibly said
Finality's more
than the no up ahead

I saw her under the mistletoe- 
Sitting, waiting, forsaken, standing, hiding, crying, or dying
It doesn't really matter anymore I guess
as by her hospital bed I pray
