"My Best Friend's Weddings" lyrics - DIXIE CHICKS

Met you at my best friend's wedding
There was something about you
You set off fireworks that evening
With a flicker of untruth

[Pre-Chorus:]
Jump twenty years, jump twenty years, twenty years, yeah
Lookin' back, in retrospect
I was never safe, I was never safe, still not safe, yeah
You'd torch me any chance you'd get

[Chorus:]
I see a wildfire comin'
Burnin' the world that I've known
Watch me, watch me outrun it
Take what I need and go

Strangest thing not having you here with me
Then I realized
That I prefer my own company
To yours anytime

[Pre-Chorus:]
In twenty years, twenty years, twenty years, yeah
I'll still be younger than you
I'm better off, I'm better off, better off, yeah
Without your gloom and your doom

[Chorus:]
'Cause I can see a wildfire comin'
Burnin' the world that I know
Watch me, watch me outrun it
Take what I need and go

[Post-Chorus:]
Go it alone, go it alone
Go it alone, go it alone
Go it alone, go it alone
Go it alone, go it alone
Go it alone, go it alone
Go it alone, go it alone

[Bridge:]
I'm back here at my best friend's wedding
Yeah, she married again
I've never seen her look more happy
Guess from ashes, we can really grow

[Chorus:]
And my wildfire's comin'
Burnin' the path that I've known
Watch me, yeah, watch me run with it
Take it wherever it goes

[Post-Chorus:]
And I'll go it alone, go it alone
Go it alone, go it alone (Go it alone)
Oh
Oh

[Outro:]
Go it alone
Go it alone
Go it alone
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
