Lyrics
Glasses in the lamplight Everyone leans in Let me say a few words Before the dancing begins I watched you find each other Slow and sure and true Now the whole room's smiling Because of the two of you Raise a cup to the two of you Here's to the love you share Raise a cup to the two of you Sweet as morning air May your kitchen always be warm May your table be full Raise a cup to the two of you Love will see you through She laughs at his bad jokes He hums when she's near Little ways of caring Said so soft and clear Through the rainy Mondays And the sunny days too Hold each other gently That's all you need to do Raise a cup to the two of you Here's to the love you share Raise a cup to the two of you Sweet as morning air May your kitchen always be warm May your table be full Raise a cup to the two of you Love will see you through Hand in hand Side by side Home is where you are Open arms, open door Wherever you may roam So lift your glass, dear family Lift it nice and high Here's to years of laughter And a calm and gentle sky One more sip together Then the music starts Dance, you two, forever With love in both your hearts Raise a cup to the two of you Here's to the love you share Raise a cup to the two of you Sweet as morning air May your kitchen always be warm May your table be full Raise a cup to the two of you Love will see you through
