Wedding Bells (Show 11) - Hank Williams

I have the invitation that you sent me

You wanted me to see you change your name

I couldn't stand to see you with 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 dat you set me free

I know someday that you are with another

But wedding bells will never ring for me
