An invitation
 And the writing looked like you
 Hello how are you and by the way
 Please RSVP I do
 I thought of writing sad words of how it used to be
 But I didn't want to bring you down, no I guess
 the bells will ring pretty well there without me
 Don't worry 'bout me baby I'll
 wear the thorny crown
 I will play the clown
 If you think that I don't love you,
 you're just wrong
 And that don't matter now anyway
 I couldn't bear to see you
 up there with a white dress on
 Here's my vow to you I'll stay away

 I remember when in a lover's whisper you said
 No other man would ever share
 your bed
 Well we both know that's not been so
 And I wish I'd never let you
 go now
 You found a better man instead
 I wish you health and wealth and a
 white house on a hill and I hope you raise a family
 Little boy and a little girl, a
 little more joy in this little old world
 Well, that'd be enough for me

 Time rolls on And dreams they die
 And I've thrown out the pictures I had of
 you and I
 And if you're ever wondering if love can be true
 Well, think of me
 and remember darling like I, like I do
 Ole friendships fade away, love falls apart
 And you've not spent a single day outside my heart
 But, there's just one more dream that
 I have left for you I hope you're smiling
 when he turns around and says I do.
