Narrow Stairs

Cath, she stands with a well-intentioned man
 But she can't relax with his hand on the small of her back
 And as the flashbulbs burst
 She holds a smile like someone would hold a crying child


 And soon everybody will ask what became of you
 'Cause your heart was dying fast, and you didn't know what to do


 Cath, it seems that you live in someone else's dream
 In a hand-me-down wedding dress
 Where the things that could have been are repressed
 But you said your vows, and you closed the door
 On so many men who would have loved you more


 And soon everybody will ask what became of you
 'Cause your heart was dying fast, and you didn't know what to do


 The whispers that it won't last roll up and down the pews
 But if their hearts were dying that fast,
 They'd have done the same as you
 And I'd have done the same as you
