You walk down the aisle in your red sleeveless dress
As
you walked down the beach by the water
She
joins hands with him, and true love they profess
And
you’re shielding your eyes
From
the light and surprise
As
you’re trying to see past the altar
Emily
The
future’s hard to see
Across
the sparkling sea
Beyond
the rising tide
The
daughter of the bride
You
hold a bouquet and your beautiful life
Golden
sunbeams are tied in your hair
They
kiss, and the pastor says, “husband and wife”
And
you fear it won’t stand
Your
strong fort in the sand
As
you think ‘bout the old yester year
Emily
The
past is memory
Your
kite is soaring free
The
ribbons come untied
The
daughter of the bride
You’re
leaving the chapel, folks smile from each pew
As
you tread on the rose petals softly
All
eyes are on her, and all eyes are on you
And
you don’t feel the same
And
the world calls your name
As
you wonder if this is it maybe?
Emily
The
now’s for you and me
This
day’s eternity
You
take it in wide-eyed
The
daughter of the bride
Live
for the Love of it,
Sasha
