Lyrics
Angel in a Wedding Dress
Wedding dress - you ought to see her
In her wedding dress
She looks just like an angel
In her wedding dress
We first met at the picture show
What the movie was I still don't know
Couldn't make myself stop watching her
Oh, her face, her smile, her hair
Her everything / Right then and there
I knew I was falling in love
Well, I tried to leave / But she took my hand
That's when I finally, finally realized
The light of love was shining in her eyes
And, from that night / We were together
Almost everyday / Talk of the town
No one could break us apart
------------ chorus ------------
She was a wild one with her horses
She had no fear in her heart / Riders on the range together
We would race to the mountaintops
Oh, her smile, her laugh, her grace
Shining like the desert sun / Right then and there
I knew she was the only one
So, I asked her folks could I take their little girl away
Oh, I promise with God, I'll be good
To her in every way
Wedding bells will ring if she says yes
When I get down on my knees / To ask her please
Will you be mine forever more
------------ chorus ------------
It was the first day back from our honeymoon
We were riding through a winter storm
Fresh snow was falling just like stars
Danger in disguise / She was a wild one
She had no fear in her heart / Laughing back at me
She started racing with the winter wind
The snow broke loose / She was falling
There was nothing I could do / And, I heard her cry
Honey, please forgive me / Always remember, I love you
Preacher man says God has her safe at home
And, I can feel her watching over me
She's my angel in a wedding dress
