The bride swayed barefoot there on the sidewalk you could
|
Fry an egg.
|
Not a shade of a cloud. Not a breath of a breeze
|
Disturbed her dress or hair.
|
Round at her feet burst by the dust a ghost rain dropped
|
Like tears.
|
We waltzed cross Texas. We waltzed by the sea.
|
We waltzed through the tears.
|
And it seemed like a good idea. It seemed like a good
|
Idea.
|
How it seemed like a good idea!
|
The bride swayed barefoot there by the sidewalk while the
|
Day stood still.
|
Not a shade of a cloud. Not a breath of a breeze played
|
On her face as she said, We can't go on like nothing is
|
Wrong. Don't be that cruel to me.
|
We waltzed cross Texas. We waltzed by the sea.
|
We waltzed through the tears.
|
And it seemed like a good idea. It seemed like a good
|
Idea.
|
How It seemed like a good idea!
|
|
And it seemed like a good idea. It seemed like a good
|
Idea.
|
Well! It seemed like a good idea.
|
|
The bride swayed barefoot there on the sidewalk you could
|
Fry an egg.
