The Right Man

Christina Aguilera · Back To Basics [2006]

So many years have gone by

Always strong, tried not to cry

Never felt like I needed any man

To comfort me in life

But I'm all made up today

A veil upon my face

But no father stands beside me

To give this bride away



Well, I'm standing in the chapel

Wearing my white dress

I have waited for this moment

With tears of happiness

Here I leave behind my past

By taking the chance

I've finally found the right man



Thoughts racing fast through my mind

As I'm gazing down the aisle

That my future will mend the memories

Torn between father and child



My emotions overload

'Cause there is no hand to hold

There's no shoulder here to lean on

I'm walking all on my own

Here I go..



Now I'm standing at four corners

"To have and to hold",

Now my love, you stand beside me

To walk life's winding road

And I owe it all to you

For taking that chance

You've shown me there's a right man

'Cause I never knew a right man



Well I'm standing in the chapel

Ready to confess

That I've waited for this moment

With tears of happiness

Now I leave behind my past

By taking the chance

Oh, whoa



Well I'm standing at four corners

"To have and to hold",

Now my love, you stand beside me

To walk life's winding road

And I owe it all to you

For taking the chance



And one day, my little girl

Will reach out her hand

She'll know I found the right man..
