I have the invitation that you sent me you wanted me to see yoy change your name
|
I couldn't stand to see you wed another I hope that you'll be happy just the same
|
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel that should be ringing now for you and me
|
And down the aisle with someone else you're walking
|
Those wedding bells will never ring for me
|
[ steel ]
|
I planned a little cottage in the valley I even bought a little band of gold
|
I hope someday to place it on your finger but now the future looks so dark and cold
|
I fancy that I see a bunch of roses a blossom from an orange tree in your hair
|
And as the organ plays I'll love you truly just let me pretend that I am there
|
Wedding bells they say will ring in heaven as the angel chorus sweetly sings
|
But as long as I am on this earth dear those wedding bells for me will never ring
|
