Ran away from his own wedding
Didn't bother to say why
Was it that he was afraid to get married or maybe he was just shy
How will we ever know, why did he want to go
Saw him make a dash for the exit
He had fear on his breath
He had a look of panic in his eyes
Like he were being chased unto death
Where was he headed to
He's got himself in quite a stew
Raise high the roof beam, carpenters
Like Ares comes the bridegroom
Raise high the roof beam, carpenters
Taller far than a tall man
They say he lived in a fantasy but they were only guessing
If he had a story he could tell well he ain't confessing
He kept it all close to the vest, it’s the kind of life he knew best
"I have these scars on my hands from touching certain people
I have so much I to tell you and nowhere to begin"
Always was a curious sort of guy, never knew what made him tick
He pulled off a great vanishing act, it was quite a neat trick
His bride is still at the altar, where is her Rock of Gibraltar
