"Altar" lyrics

"Altar"

Today I wipe away a final tear
I'm in my suit, my tie, my finest
Oh, the nearest, dearest, they're all right here
Wearing a smile under hushed silence

I'm thankful for this moment
Feel so close, yet far away

In love, there ain't no second prize
In your eyes
I was almost your number one
And I'll be there
In another time, in another life
I'll meet you

At the altar
At the altar

I'm still behind you after all these years
First on your list to be invited
The curtain's closed, the path has disappeared
I've made my peace 'cause you've decided

I'm thankful for this moment
Saw it in a different way

In love, there ain't no second prize
In your eyes
I was almost your number one
And I'll be there
In another time, in another life
I'll meet you

At the altar
At the altar

One last thing that's left to say
One last thing that's true
If you'd ask the question to me
I would've said I do

In love, there ain't no second prize
In your eyes
I was almost your number one
And I'll be there
In another time, in another life
I'll meet you
In another time, in another life
I'll meet you

At the altar
At the altar
