The Wolf Is Getting Married
Sinead O'Connor · Other Songs - Sinead O'Connor
I was too free, if that's possible to be
No safety, is what I mean
No solid foundation, to keep me.
But the sun is peeping out of the sky
Where it used to be only grey
The wolf is getting married
And he'll never cry again
Your smile, makes me smile
Your laugh, makes me laugh
Your joy, gives me joy
Your hope, gives me hope
And the sun is peeping out of the sky
Where it used to be only grey
The wolf is getting married
And he'll never cry again
Never cry again
Even when something
Terrible is happening
You laugh and that's the thing
I love about you most
[x2]
Your smile, makes me smile
Your hope, gives me hope
And the sun is peeping out of the sky
Where it used to be only grey
The wolf is getting married
And he'll never cry again
