Vision In White
Standing in front of the altar, mesmerized by a vision in white
On the arm of another man, paternal pride across his face
This woman I fell in love with, within the hour to be my wife.
I fell deeply in love forever, the first time she came into sight
Immediately knowing then and there I would come to this holy place
Standing in front of the altar, mesmerized by a vision in white.
Our love flourished over the years, preparing us for this flight
Into matrimonial union with a ballet duet dancer’s grace
This woman I fell in love with, within the hour to be my wife.
Soon to pledge our vows in a church full of candle light
I see her beautiful smile beaming through the veil of lace
Standing in front of the altar, mesmerized by a vision in white.
In front of our friends as witness, voicing a commitment that is so right
Ready to share eternity, completely void of any disgrace
This woman I fell in love with, within the hour to be my wife.
The flower girl having laid your journey with a feeling so contrite
I wait patiently for the moment the two of us embrace
Standing in front of the altar, mesmerized by a vision in white
This woman I fell in love with, within the hour to be my wife.
