VESTA WILLIAMS

- Congratulations Lyrics

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 waitin’ all alone
You turned around and heard me call

Congratulations
I thought it would have been me
Standin’ here 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

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 never really said goodbye
Thought we’d give it one more try
Felt our love was here to stay
And now today’s your wedding day

Congratulations
I thought it would have been me
Standin’ here with you
Congratulations
I hope you’re happy

Brought the wishes, baby
Oh...oh...tonight you and me
Because you ???
I-I thought it should have been me, 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

Congratulations

What is the meaning behind Congratulations lyrics?


When we look deeper into its meaning, Vesta Williams' 'Congratulations' is a tale of love that is no more and a person's disbelief when the ex gets married and he is just there by chance, watching. The words show shock and infliction, but at the same time there is also the sense of acceptance which means to stick around a bit longer with love that is definitely not freely given. The main themes in the 'Congratulations' lyrics are heartache, love, despair, angst but hope at the same time. The song also conveys the message of heartbreak and loss, unfulfilled love and regret and nostalgia. The lyrics are quite suggestive of heartbreak and unreciprocal love, which may be inappropriate for kids without parents' supervision. Still, strong language, violence or explicit content is not there at all.
