Congratulations Lyrics by Vesta Williams

Vesta 4 U

0

[Verse 1]
Saw an old friend on the street
She said today's your wedding
My heart stopped
The tears dropped
Saw my whole life pass me by
I had to see you, baby
I never ran so fast before
I rushed inside the chapel door
You were waiting all alone
You turned around and heard me call

[Chorus]
Congratulations
I thought it would have been me
Standing there with you
Congratulations
I hope you're happy
'Cause as long as I can breathe
You'll always be the one for me, oh, oh

[Verse 2]
Why was I the last to know?
I thought that we were special
My soul shakes
My heart breaks
As I turn and walk away
I can't believe it's over
We really never said goodbye
Thought we'd give it one more try
Felt our love was here to stay
And now today's your wedding day

[Chorus]
Congratulations
I thought it would have been me
Standing here with you
Congratulations
I, I hope you're happy
'Cause as long as I can breathe
You'll always be the one for me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Congratulations, baby
I hope she makes you happy
Because you didn't even say goodbye, and hey, hey, I, yeah
I thought it should have been me, oh, oh, oh, oh
But as long as I can breathe
You'll always be the one for me
'Cause as long as I can breathe
You'll always be the one for me
