Love Is A Beautiful Thing Lyrics - Prayer Of A Common Man - Phil Vassar

Looks like everybody's here 

Had to put some foldin' chairs in the vestibule 

Yeah, it's gettin' full 

Even old Aunt Ruby came 

Her first time on an airplane 

It's her sister's girl 

She wouldn't miss it for the world 

And all them kids jumpin' in the pews 

And Mr. Charlie in his lime-green suit 

"Is a handsome man" 

Remarks Widow Callahan 

Uncle Joe and Uncle Jake 

Haven't spoken since '98 

Just said hello 

It's a good day to let it go 

So let the angels gather, let the music play 

Let the preacher get to preachin' all the "do you take's" 

Love is a beautiful thing 

Throw the rice in the air, let the church bells ring 

Tie the cans to the back of that limousine 

Love is a beautiful thing 

Daddy's waitin' with the bride 

Yeah, she helps him with his tie 

She sees a tear 

He says, "Man, it's hot in here" 

He hugs his little girl and asks 

"How did you grow up so fast? 

God, I wish your Momma could be here for this" 

And everybody stands and smiles 

As she comes walkin' down the aisle 

In her Momma's gown 

And Daddy breaks on down 

Gran and Gramps in the second row 

Stood right there fifty years ago 

And said their vows 

Yeah, I guess it's workin' out 

So let the angels gather, let the music play 

Let the preacher get to preachin' all the "do you take's" 

Love is a beautiful thing 

Throw the rice in the air, let the church bells ring 

Tie the cans to the back of that limousine 

Love is a beautiful thing 

A little table full of gifts 

Catering's covered dish 

And the wedding band 

Well, that's on her hand 

And Tommy's teasin' Lorelei 

He pushed her down and made her cry 

And neither one knows 

A day will come 

When the angels gather and the music plays 

And the preacher gets to preachin' all the "do you take's" 

Love is a beautiful thing 

Throw the rice in the air, let the church bells ring 

Tie the cans to the back of that limousine 

Love, two people in love is a beautiful thing
