Lyrics
Lady in White
There she stands, on the brink of her life,
Her hand in his, brand new wife.
Look at her smile, she looks at him,
Lady in white, their life now begins.
Chorus:
Who is this woman, standing up there,
Wasn?t it yesterday I was braiding her hair.
She looks so happy, smoothing her veil,
Something just tells me I must not have failed.
He holds her close, touches her face,
You?d think that they were alone in this place.
They move so slowly over the floor.
Their love is deeper than ever before.
Chorus:
Who is this woman, standing up there,
Wasn?t it yesterday I was braiding her hair.
She looks so happy, smoothing her veil,
Something just tells me I must not have failed.
Now they will fly into the sun. Could it be, my job is done?
Everyone gathers as they walk out the door.
This special day was worth waiting for.
Chorus:
Who is this woman, standing up there,
Wasn?t it yesterday I was braiding her hair.
She looks so happy, smoothing her veil,
Something just tells me I must not have failed.
