For my weddin' I will dress in black
Never again will I look back
All my dark angels we must part
For I have made a sanctuary of my heart

To want what I have to take what I'm given with grace
For this I pray on my wedding day.

For my wedding I don't want violins
Or sentimental songs about thick and thin
I want a moment of silence and a moment of prayer
For the love we'll need to make it in the world out there

To want what I have to take what I'm given with grace
For this I pray on my wedding day
On my wedding day

Well I dream and my dreams are all blowin light
That's what I wanted for my life
And if it hasn't always been that way
Well I can dream and I can pray
On my wedding day

So what makes us any different from all the others
Who have tried and failed before us
Maybe nothin, maybe nothin at all
But I pray we're the lucky ones
I pray we'll never fall

To want what we have to take what we're given with grace
For these things I pray on my wedding day
On my wedding day
