Wedding Bells

Claude Boone

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 bells will never ring for me

I planned a little cottage in the valley
I even bought a little band of gold
I hoped someday 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
While the organ plays 'I love you truly'
Please let me pretend that I am there

Wedding bells they say will ring in Heaven
As the angel chorus sweetly sings
But as long as I am on this earth, dear
Those wedding bells for me will never ring
