What's that meaning of "something borrowed something blue"? Hi guys, I have a question, I heard a song recently, there are some weird lyrics within it and I don't know what that means "something old, something new. something borrowed something blue", seems it was according to some custom in some English countries. Could you tell me that? Here I pasted whole of this lyric: "My whole world changed from the moment I met you and it would never be the same felt like I knew that I'd always loved you from the moment I heard your name everything was perfect I knew this love was worth it our own miracle in the making until this world stops turning I'll still be here waiting and waiting to make that vow that I'll I'll be by your side till the day I die I'll be waiting till I hear you say I do something old, something new something borrowed, something blue I'll be waiting till I hear you say I do smiles by the thousands ya tears have all dried out cause I won't see you cry again throw pennies in a fountain look at what comes out sometimes wishes do come true now everything is perfect I know this love is worth it our own miracle in the making until this world stops turning I'll still be here waiting and waiting to make that vow that I'll I'll be by your side till the day I die I'll be waiting till I hear you say I do something old, something new something borrowed, something blue I'll be waiting till I hear you say I do always better than worse protect you from the hurt I'll be waiting till I hear you say I do I do love you, yes I do love you I'll be waiting till I hear you say I do cause I love you, love you I'll be by your side till the day I die I'll be waiting till I hear you say I do something old, something new something borrowed, something blue I'll be waiting till I hear you say I do we're shining like a diamond just look at us now I wanna hear you say I do"
