I cried all the way to the altar


A smile was on my face, but tears were in my heart

Two hearts broken and a third will soon falter


Now too late, I know that we were wrong to part




Oh, my darling now too late


We can't go back and start anew


Now too late, I've thrown away

My chance of happiness with you





I cried all the way to the altar

Now too late, I know that we were wrong to part





Take a calendar and turn back all the pages

Take my life, turn back each day since I was born


I cried all the way to the altar


Now too late, I see the damage I have done




Oh, my darling now too late


We can't go back and start anew

Now too late, I've thrown away


My chance of happiness with you




I cried all the way to the altar


Now too late, I know that we were wrong to part
