|
I have the invitation that you sent me |
|
You wanted me to see you change your name |
|
I couldn't stand to see you with another |
|
But dear i hope you're happy just the same |
|
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel |
|
That should be ringing out for you and me |
|
Down the aisle with someone else you're walking |
|
Those wedding bell will never ring for me |
|
I planned a little cottage in the valley |
|
I even bought a little band of gold |
|
I thought some day i'd place it on your finger |
|
But now the future looks so dark and cold |
|
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel |
|
I hear the children laughing out with glee |
|
At home alone i hang my head in sorrow |
|
Those wedding bells will never ring for me |
|
I fancy that i see a bunch of roses |
|
A blossom from an orange tree in your hair |
|
And while the organ plays i love you truly |
|
Please let me pretend that i am there |
|
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel |
|
Ever since the dat you set me free |
|
I know someday that you are with another |
|
But wedding bells will never ring for me |
