On a bed of white lie silver curls
A distant chime now
Those bright wedding bells
On this day I held your hand
Vows exchanged, hearts of young love
Our time a spark so long ago

My love, our day has come
Would you still walk with me down the aisle
After years some good some ill
I wouldn't change a single thing
Now with brittle bones and heavy eyes
I hope to see you when it's time
In my heart your laughter still
And the smile of your eyes

You built the house
I grew our meal
Through love and labor
We both found our peace
Years they passed, our day arrived
This time to say goodbye
I tucked you in for earth to keep
One day to join your eternal sleep

My love, our day has come
Will you still walk with me down the aisle
After years some good some ill
I wouldn't change a single thing
Now with brittle bones and heavy eyes
I hope to see you when it's time

You went to test the waters
Left me to tie loose ends
I think I'm better for it
At least I tried my best
Every drop of life I drank
Now with brittle bones and heavy eyes
I hope to see you when it's time
In my heart your laughter still
And the smile of your eyes

My love, our day has come
My love, our day has come
My love, our day has come
My love, our day has come

My love, our day has come
Will you still walk with me down the aisle
After years some good some ill
I wouldn't change a single thing
Now with brittle bones and heavy eyes
I hope to see you when it's time

You went to test the waters
Left me to tie loose ends
I think I'm better for it
At least I tried my best
Every drop of life I drank
Now with brittle bones and heavy eyes
I hope to see you when it's time
