Tom Kitt - This Day / Walking by a Wedding lyrics

[Company:] All the days he thought he lost her All the nights she had that fear All the fights and all they cost her All of that has lead them here All their life has gone this way so they could be here this day On this day And all the wrong turns on the way somehow brought them both here to this day [Beth (Idina Menzel):] Walking by a wedding On East 10th near lower Broadway In the dabbled afternoon of a not-quite-summer's day Walking by a wedding With the wispy waspish bridesmaids And the whitest calla lilies in the tidiest bouquet It must be May [Kate:] All the time I lost before you, all the time I left to think [Anne:] All the time that I'll adore you is how I know we're not too late [Kate:] Every hour of love delayed [Kate and Anne:] Doesn't mean a minute this day On this day And when we finally say those vows, I'll love you just as long as time allows [Beth:] Walking by a wedding As the church doors tumble open And the cousins and the colleagues stagger out into the street Imagine your own wedding as you float on down the aisle To the man upon the altar, who will make your life complete Who perhaps one day you'll meet And she will never look so beautiful, and he will never stand so still And this day may last forever but tomorrow never will And life will never seem so beautiful or troubles seem so far away Where the answers be so easy, as I do and I do This was this day Walking by a wedding On East 10th near lower Broadway In the dying afternoon of a should-be-summer day Standing there a knowing the world will never seem so lonely As when you're walking by a wedding And waiting And watching Then walking, walking away [Man:] Get ready for the bride and groom [Liz:] All the thing's I've messed up badly, all the hurt and all the shame [Josh:] You'd do them all again and gladly If you knew you'd end up the same [Liz:] All my life is at display, all of it except for this day [Liz and Josh:] Oh this day [Liz:] And I'm a sorry sight to see, except the fact that you love me [Liz and Josh:] And all I lost along the way is all I had to lose to find this day Oh this day [All:] This day, on this day [Company:] I'm amazed he somehow found her I'm amazed that she gave in She will lift and he will ground her All in all, I'd say it's win-win 'Cause the first time was disaster, when out west, was Orin's wife She'd have ditched him that much faster if Josh walked into her life Oh this day This day, oh this day This day, oh this day This day, oh this day This day, oh this day This day, oh this day This day, oh this day This day, oh this day This day, oh this day
