Lyrics
Lanterns hanging in the garden Fiddle, piano, a gentle tune I watched you walk across the grass Under the rising moon Lantern lights and wedding bells Hold me close, say all is well Lantern lights and wedding bells Love is here, and love will stay Sister gives a trembling toast Mama dabs her eyes You squeeze my hand beneath the table No more words, no more goodbyes Lantern lights and wedding bells Hold me close, say all is well Lantern lights and wedding bells Love is here, and love will stay Slow, slow, sway with me One more dance, just you and me Slow, slow, the night is deep Promises we mean to keep The cake is cut, the band plays low Stars come out one by one Here's to the years and here's to now Our story has just begun Lantern lights and wedding bells Hold me close, say all is well Lantern lights and wedding bells Love is here, and love will stay Love is here And love will stay
