It was quite a wedding - good to see her   
Don't see her much since our kid got grown    
But our boy got getting married today
I whispered out her name
She turned and asked "have you been?"
We hugged carefully then asked about old friends...(chorus)

We laugh just a little
And almost cry just a little
At the way things are
And the way they should have been
Then we look at each other
As father and mother
And come back to the moment we're in

We talked about when he was a baby
And oh how the years had flown
We looked at the smile on his face
She said she hoped they would be happy
I said I'd given some advice,
She rolled her eyes and said -
"Oh Lord, what did you say?"
And at that we...(chorus)

They finished their vows,
We followed them up the aisle
We talked to friends and family
Then shared a parting smile
But neither of us has said quite
What we wanted to say
We share a wistful look
And as I walk away...(chorus)
