[Spoken:]
|
Today you told me that you'd found another
|
And you took off your golden wedding band
|
The one you vowed you'd wear until death do us part
|
When I kissed it and placed it on your hand
|
A wreath will hang upon the door tomorrow
|
Of the little house that we once called our home
|
And friends will stop and hang their heads in sorrow
|
To pay the last respects to one gone on
|
|
Tonight I lay me down to sleep forever
|
With this small empty bottle and broken heart
|
I keep the vow I made I won't forsake it
|
I promised to death do us part
|
|
Will you bring your new love to the chapel
|
To look upon the one that you betrayed
|
Will you bring me pretty flowers like you used to
|
And replace them in my hands where I lay
|
|
Will you cry and think of happy mem'ries
|
That we shared together at the start
|
And will you look upon me and remember
|
the day we said till death do us part
|
