WEDDING BELLS Lyrics

I have the invitation that you sent me

 You wanted me to see you change your name

 I couldn't stand to see you wed another

 But dear I hope you're happy just the same

 Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel

 That should be ringing out for you and me

 Down the aisle with someone else you're walking

 Those wedding bell will never ring for me

 I planned a little cottage in the valley

 I even bought a little band of gold

 I thought some day I'd place it on your finger

 But now the future looks so dark and cold

 Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel

 I hear the children laughing out with glee

 At home alone I hang my head in sorrow

 Those wedding bells will never ring for me

 I fancy that I see a bunch of roses

 A blossom from an orange tree in your hair

 And while the organ plays I love you truly

 Please let me pretend that I am there

 Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel

 Ever since the day you set me free

 I knew someday that you would wed another

 But wedding bells will never ring for me
