I know you’re independent
And I know that’s what I said but
Then our journey started
I’m so sorry, guess I lied
I know that you can open
Your own doors, but now I’m holding
This one for you, so forgive me
But hey, at least I tried
That’s just how my mother raised me
She said “go on, find your daisy”
Pick the prettiest, the wittiest
Then she paused, sat down and cried
“She’ll bring life” my mother told me
That last night she’d ever hold me
And like always, what she told me
It was the truth, I must confide
“Find the one”, she said
“Out there waiting, just ahead”
“You say it’s all just tales”
“But she is real, the perfect bride”
I know you’re independent
But I hope now that you get it
Come on in, the door is open
Let’s walk together, side by side
