Your Wedding

Jim Reeves · Welcome to My World [1996]

(Ray Winkler - Jim Reeves)



I'm on my way to your wedding

How I hate to go there

But I just couldn't stay, couldn't stay away

For you see I still care.



I couldn't stand not knowing

What this man you'll marry's like

What a sad trip to your wedding

But sadder coming back.



When you take his hand and make your plans

The plans we made are through

And though it hurts, and hurts, how it hurts

My best to both of you.



--- Instrumental ---



I received your invitation

And I held it in my hand

But to tear this letter open

Was more than I could stand.



Would it matter if I told you

That I cried for my first time today

But I've got my tears turned off

So please don't look my way...
