The Vow

Wake up early in the morning Put on a dress of white Something borrowed, something blue Something you knows he likes With a hard time sleeping lately All of your thoughts on him So soon at the day, vows will be made New beginnings bringing to an end Absent mindley you tuck a hanky Knowing how the tears will flow The way they did when you last held hands Not so long ago As the church doors swing wide open He is waiting down in front Once again you gaze on him With nothing short of love You have a bit a deja vu As your father walks you down the aisle Who's job through life has been to hold you tight As any father would a child With tears flowing you stand before him As you once again repeat your vows To always love and cherish As long as memory will allow That is when the best of men Step up on both the sides And gently close the casket lid On what was once your perfect life
