I slowly turned the pages |
|
And see all these smiling faces |
|
It's hard to believe it was today, ten years ago |
|
Here is the invitation, to our wedding celebration |
|
Just look at the promise theses pictures show(now i know) |
|
If i had loved her by the book |
|
She would be right here by my side but fool that i am |
|
I overlooked my promise to love her forever, for worse or for better |
|
We'd still be together...if i had loved her by the book |
|
If i'd opened the book more often |
|
Then i wouldn't forgotten |
|
How much she cared, and how much i meant my solemn vow |
|
To honor, to have and to hold her...but as i read them over |
|
I know its to late to say i'm sorry now, but some how |
|
