Wedding Themes

This is Your Day

This is your day
it might sound old fashioned
But then fashion, is not my style

I just want to say
y0u look so lovely,
but then lovely, is in your mother’s smile

Just who can know
where the road is going?
The river flowing,
but off you go…
(but) we’re gathered here
to raise our glasses
before this time passes
so you’ll always know…

Wherever it leads
you’ll know how it started
open hearted
as your wedding bouquet
we planted the seeds
and love, you found it
wrap your heart around it
darling…this is your day…

I Know You Oh So Well

The planet’s whirl around the sun, in circular design
never seem to catch each other, but occasionally they align
and when they do, it’s oh so rare
fireworks in the summer’s air
(makes it) finally fair to say…

I love you
you love me
I can tell
I know you oh so well…

these little things
are so lovely
(they) cast a spell
I know you oh so well…

it’s like the morning has come, brought the sun, and put luck in my pocket
my heart, it carries this locket of you
(I know it sounds funny…)

years may come
years may go
time will tell
I know you oh so well…

when the dark clouds come, and they block the sun…
I’ll keep holding on to, love I want to, carry with me all my life

(so) promise me
I’ll promise you
let’s kiss & tell
to these wedding bells
darling since I fell
I know you oh, so…well
Adore

adore, adore
you’re all that I’m living for
whenever my heart needs more...
I stop...and think about you baby

amour, amour
your kiss is what I adore
you opened my eyes with your
sweet touch...mmm I dream about it baby

(you know a) diamond always sparkles
when you put it on a ring
a promise on her finger
it means one thing...

adore, adore
like starlight upon the shore
you came down from above to pour
your love...and I’m thankful to you baby...

(solo)
that promise on her finger
’n it means one thing…

adore, adore
like starlight upon the shore
you came down from above to pour
your love...and I’m thankful to you baby...
yes I’m thankful to you baby...
thankful to you baby...
thankful to you baby
Spring Came Early This Year

I wasn’t ready, how could I know?
my heart it was frozen, after all the years of snow
but when you smiled, I felt as though
SPRING CAME EARLY THIS YEAR

A surprise party, but only you came
to take off my coat, after all the wind & rain
now it feels like stroll, down a warm sunny lane
SPRING CAME EARLY THIS YEAR

Yes the sun can come out, the wind can come near
The clouds can roll by, then disappear
The moon it can rise, when the night first appears
cuz deep in my heart, one this is clear (oh my dear…)

You are the promise, I finally kept
at first I laughed, and then I wept
out of the darkness, I finally stepped
SPRING CAME EARLY
SPRING CAME EARLY
SPRING CAME EARLY THIS YEAR…
I Want You Near

Life can be so complicated, worrisome it’s true
A thousand things to think about, but that was before you...
came into view...like a summer’s day...or a child at play it’s simple
I want you near

People call me sentimental, ‘n this I don’t deny
I must admit a tear or two, have fallen from these eyes
but now I don’t try...to hide these tears...they’re for you my dear it’s simple
I want you near

I want you near I want you here
I want you close at hand a part of me
the start of me
the heart of all I am

I had to search the whole world over, before we two could meet
believing that our stars would cross, makes finding you so sweet
the circle complete...and like that ring...it means one thing
so simple

I want you near
always...
I want you near
