Umbrellas out down in Tower Park
The rain came down and it came down hard
As the bandstand played the wedding march
Circling round in their suits and ties
Their evening gowns and their watering eyes
As the bandstand played the wedding march
Oh so, hold me now and fold me in the dark.
Slowly, won’t you sew me in your arms?
In your arms…
Spin me slow like the speed of hope in your heart.
Western swing and reception drinks
A two-step smile and a foxtrot wink
As the bandstand plays, the wedding march.
Well it surely seems things are going right
She’s a pretty thing and he’s awfully nice
As the bandstand plays, “One more time!” the wedding march
Oh so, hold me now and fold me in the dark.
Slowly, won’t you sew me in your arms?
In your arms…
Spin me slow like the speed of hope in your heart.
