If there's anyone here
Who knows why these two people should not be joined together
Let them speak now or forever hold their peace

Wait, wait stop the wedding
You just marrying her for spite
If she knew the inside story
She'd tell you what your doing just ain't right

I know you don't wanna hurt me
So stop this madness before it starts
Revenge will only cause you regret
So don't do it, don't do it
Don't break two hearts
(Don't break two hearts)

'Cause you belong to me, oh darlin'
And I belong to you and deep down inside me now
I know you feel that way too
So baby, don't do it (don't do it)
Don't do it (don't do it) don't do it (don't do it)
Oh, don't you break two hearts
(Oh don't break two hearts)

No, no, no baby don't do it (don't you do it)
Don't do it (don't you do it)
Stop the wedding (don't you do it)
Oh, don't you break, don't you break two hearts
(Oh don't break two hearts)
No, no, no, no, don't do it (don't you do it)

Don't do it (don't you do it)
Stop the wedding (don't you do it)
Oh, don't break two hearts
(Oh, don't break two hearts)
No,no, no,no, don't do it (don't you do it)
Stop the wedding (don't you do it)
Oh, oh don't you break two hearts
(Oh, don't break two hearts)
