Weak at the knees I stand before you

Wondering what to say, what to do.

I should have had that second glass of wine

Somehow, there just wasn't time.

I stand here, heart in hand

Hoping you'll understand

All the words that I am trying to say

From my heart, on this day.

I'm still so very weak at the knees

Would you say something please?

We both smile a smile, so obscenely quiet

My heart beats in its own riot.
