Sister Hazel - Champagne High

i wonder about the inspiration behind this song, when i first heard it i felt like i was there and watching their lead singer during his sweatheart's wedding

i can't help but believe that this is a true story, just too much emotion behind it... check it out


I wasn't looking for a lifetime with you
And I never thought it would hurt just to hear
"I do" and "I do"
And I do a number on myself
And all that I thought to be
And you'll be the one
That just left me undone
By my own, hesitation

Bridge
and for the million hours that we were
well I'll smile and remember it all
then I'll turn and go
while your story's completed mine is a long way from done.

Chorus
Well I'm on a champagne high
Where will I be when I stop wondering why
On a champagne high
I'd toast to the future but that'd be a lie
On a champagne high, high

Spring turned to summer
But then winter turned to mean
The distance seemed right
At the time it was best - to leave
And to leave behind
What I once thought was fine And so real - to me
And while I'm still gone
On the quest for my song
I'm at your - celebration

Bridge & Chorus

Your wagons been hitched to a star
Well now he'll be your thing that's new
Yeah what little I have you can borrow
'Cause I'm old and I'm blue...

Bridge

Well I'm on a champagne high (so high)
Where will I be when I stop wondering why
On a champagne high (so high)
Toast to the future but that'd be a lie
On a champagne high
Where will I be when I stop wondering why
On a champagne high...high...
So high so high you left me undone
so high, so high you left me undone...




oooh and sister hazel are probably the only band who master the art of the backing vocals, their backing vocalist harmonizes exceptionally well on all their songs, i can probably dedicate more than 10 posts to them but i thought i'd introduce anybody interested in them the same way i was, it was either Champagne high or "all for you" that i heard first and they are both brilliant
