The Bride's Dad |
My ginger voice was raw with smoke |
They hid their smiles when I stood and spoke |
Some sunny lawn, some Saturday |
A face was flushed when I went to sing |
Wild Mountain Thyme |
But I was crying before the second line |
The strawberry stripes across |
My ruddy cheeks got em giggling |
My eyes are red and wild and wide |
As I choked up over another line |
For years and year I disappeared |
Tonight I’m here and I’m giving my best |
It’s all I have, the grandkids laugh |
My linen vest is yellow stained |
And my teeth are chipped, my beard is gray |
Your mother left, she’s not impressed |
The wedding guests are starting to get restless |
And I think I have worn out my welcome |
But I swear I caught you smile |
From the corner of my eye |
When they threw me off the stage |
Oh I know I saw you smiling |
I swear I saw you smiling |
They carried me away |
Through the center of the crowd |
From the corner of my eye |
I swear I saw you smiling |
You’ll always be my darling, sweetheart |
