Don Henley - For My Wedding lyrics

(larry john mcnally) For my wedding, i will dress in black And never again will i look back Ah, my dark angels we must part For i've made 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 and 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 i have To take what i'm given with grace For this i pray On my wedding day On my wedding day I dream, and my dreams are all glory and light That's what i've 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 we're the lucky ones; i pray we never fall To want what we have To take what we're given with grace For these things i pray On my wedding day On my wedding day
