Lyrics
Mi vida... your father hired me. He never knew. He shook my hand and paid me half up front Said play her something sweet, it's her big night I walked in with my guitar, and there you were Four years gone, still standing in the light Candles on the tables, his hand on your shoulder Do you know it's me? Can you feel it, mi amor? I'm the singer at your wedding Singing every word to you Smiling for the table, dying by the door I'm the singer at your wedding Loving you like I always do One more song, then I'm gone, I won't ask for more You still turn your ring when you get nervous I know that trick, I used to hold that hand The strings come in and I'm looking right at you Every note a prayer you can't understand Your mother's wiping tears, your father's raising his glass Do you know it's me? Can you feel it, mi amor? You were my church, and I walked out on Sunday Now I'm kneeling at a microphone Begging you to look away Or look at me, baby, look at me Just once, before I go Don't worry. I'll finish the set, hand back the mic, and skip the dessert. I'm the singer at your wedding Singing every word to you Smiling for the table, dying by the door I'm the singer at your wedding Loving you like I always do One last song, then I'm gone, I won't ask for more Be happy, mi amor... Oh, be happy, be happy for me Ooooh...
