Tom Fletcher: 'I've married this girl, who's out of this world', Tom & Giovanna - 2012

July 1, 2015

5 December, 2012, One Marylebone, London, United Kingdom

So um, Giovanna can tell you that the only nerves and anxiety I’ve had about the wedding has been about giving this speech. I absolutely hate public speaking. Me and public speaking are just not compatible, we don’t go together very well. I think mainly because I don’t have any idea how to write a good speech, but I do know how to write a song ... so I hope this isn’t cheating my way out of this too much.

Recently i've been
Having a wedding
I've married this girl
Who's out of this world
Believe me

We are so grateful
To so many people
But we're saying thank you
To only a few
I'm sorry

So if i don't thank you
It means i problaby just forgot you

But obviously, that doesn't mean
We are not grateful
Sorry if your name's not in this song
Here we go
I hope i don't get this wrong

Hey, i'm saying thanks to my ushers
My managers and gi's brother
There's so much i could say
But i haven't got all day

So mario thanks for making
The suits us guys are wearing
We're looking fine and that is why
I wrote this song to say

Thank you
Thank you for being my ushers
Thank you
Fletch you're awesome, the coolest guy
Thank you
Thank you for being my ushers
Guys, i gotta tell you
You couldn't be better ushers
Unless you were usher

Bridemaids
I can't stop thanking you
You look amazing
Wish i could marry you too

You all are so special to my new wife gi
And you mean so much to me
'cause you truly are
The best bridemaids that's ever been
Oh, yeah

So thank you's not good enough
For katie and savanna
You've been there when times are rough
So please, don't go changing

So thank you's not good enough
For laura and kara
You've put up with so much stuff
So thank you's not good enough

Giorgina
You're now my sister in law
But giorgina
You were like a sister before

You are truly a friend
And that means a lot
'cause it's pretty cool that
My sister-in-law is so hot

So thank you's not good enough
Carrie you've done so much
I can't believe you're so grown up
So please, don't go changing

Thank you's not good enough
For singing as we tied the knot
So carrie and georgina
Thank you's not good enough

Thanks to my bestmen
You are the best friends
That i know i'll ever have

You're more like brothers
And sometimes lovers
But we won't tell'em about that

We've been together
For what feels like forever
But i'd do it all again and again

But we're only getting started
And i know mcfly will never end

So lets start with harry
You've been there for me
For all the good times and the bad

Dougie without you
Don't know what i'd do
But i know my life would be sad

Thank you danny
For making me happy
By thinking eggs are vegetables

'cause things like that remind me
How lost i'd be without you all

Thanks to my mum
Thanks to my dad
You've both been the best
Mum and dad i could have

I won't say too much
'cause i know you'll start crying
You gave me everything
From music to flying

I'd be nothing without you
So i hope i've made you proud
You've given me an amazing life
And the groom never lies

Thanks to gi's mum
Thanks to gi's dad
Kim's profitoroles
Are the best that i've had

I hope one day
We'll have a son or a daughter
'cause gi will be a great mum
With the things you've taught her

So kim thanks for being
The best mum-in-law in town
And just look into my eyes
'cause the groom never lies

Mario
Mario

You've made me part of your family
You deserve a medallion
Because i know only
How to swear in italian

But i love your daughter
And you let me make her my wife
So i'll love her for i'll my life
And the groom never lies (he cries, though)

Yesterday you asked me something i though you'd knew
But today you made me smile
By saying i do

Then i whispered in your ear and i said thank you
You have made my life worthwhile
By saying i do

And i would answer all your wishes
Don't need to ask me to
And if you deny me one of your kisses
I won't divorce you

So here's my speech
Or really, it's just a song or two
And this one should make you smile
It's all about you

It's all about you, it's all about you baby

And i would wash up all the dishes
If you asked me to
And i'd even dry and put them away
'cause that's what husbands do

So hold me close
And say three words like you used to do
Dancing on the kitchen tiles
Yes, you make my life worthwhile
So i told you with a smile

And i would answer all your wishes
If you asked me too
But if you deny me one of your kisses
Don't know what i'd do

So here's a toast
Please raise your glasses and champagne flutes
It's to my beautiful wife
From today for all my life
Especially on our wedding night
It's all about you

It's all about you, it's all about you baby

It's all about... you
