The Wedding Song (2021 Remaster) Lyrics

[Chorus]
These are silver wings
These are golden eyes
These are floating clouds
Angel for life

[Verse 1]
Dreaming alone and I feel that someone (Someone)
Listens to me
Angel for life

[Chorus]
These are silver wings
These are golden eyes
These are floating clouds
Angel for life

[Verse 2]
Heaven is smiling down
Hеaven's girl in a wedding gown
I'm gonna be so good
Just likе a good boy should
I'm gonna change my ways
Angel for life
Of all the saints alive
Don't I feel like a saint alive?
She's not mine for eternity
Though I'll never fly so high
I'm smiling
[Outro]
I believe in magic
Angel for life
In magic
Angel for life
I believe in magic
Angel for life
In magic
Angel for life
I believe in magic

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
