The speaker is interrupting a wedding ceremony, sneaking into the venue and hiding in the curtains. As the ceremony begins, with the bride floating down the aisle, the speaker knows that the groom wishes it was her instead. When the preacher says "speak now or forever hold your peace", the speaker stands up with shaky hands to object to the marriage, looking only at the groom. She asks the groom to run away with her now instead of saying his vows, as their time is running out.
