Don Henley
"For My Wedding"


For My Wedding
I will dress in black
Never again will I look back
All my dark angels, we must part
Provide me with a sanctuary of my heart

To want what I have
To take what I'm given with grace
For this I pray
On my wedding day

For My Wedding
I don't want violins
Or sentimental songs, about thick & thin
I want a moment of silence
And a moment of prayer
For the love we'll need to make it
In the world out there

To want what we have
To take what I'm given with grace
For this I pray
On my wedding day
On my wedding day

Well I dream in my dreams are glory and light
That's what I wanted for my life
And if it hasn't always been that way
Well I can dream, and I can pray
On my wedding day

So what makes us any different
From all the others
Who have tried and failed before us
Maybe nothing, maybe nothing at all
But I pray were the lucky ones
I pray we'll never fall

To want what we have
To take what I'm given with grace
For this I pray
On my wedding day
On my wedding day
