AS I SLOWLY
TURN THE PAGES
AND SEE ALL THESE
SMILING FACES
IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE
IT WAS TODAY
TEN YEARS AGO
HERE IS THE INVITATION
TO OUR WEDDING
CELEBRATION
JUST LOOK AT
THE PROMISE
THAT THESE PICTURES
SHOW
NOW I KNOW
IF I HAD LOVED
HER BY THE BOOK
SHE WOULD BE RIGHT
HERE BY MY SIDE
THE FOOL THAT I AM
I OVERLOOKED
MY PROMISE
TO LOVE HER FOREVER
FOR WORSE
OR FOR BETTER
WE'D STILL BE
TOGETHER
IF I'D LOVED HER
BY THE BOOK
4 BAR
BREAK
IF I'D OPENED THIS BOOK
MORE OFTEN
THEN I WOULDN'T HAVE
FORGOTTEN
HOW MUCH SHE CARED
AND HOW MUCH
I MEANT
MY SOLEMN VOW
TO HONOR TO HAVE
AND HOLD HER
BUT AS I READ
THEM OVER
I KNOW IT'S TOO LATE
TO SAY I'M SORRY NOW
BUT SOMEHOW
IF I HAD LOVED
HER BY THE BOOK
SHE WOULD BE RIGHT
HERE BY MY SIDE
THE FOOL THAT I AM
I OVERLOOKED
MY PROMISE
TO LOVE HER FOREVER
FOR WORSE
OR FOR BETTER
WE'D STILL BE
TOGETHER
IF I'D LOVED HER
IF I HAD LOVED
HER BY THE BOOK
SHE WOULD BE RIGHT
HERE BY MY SIDE
THE FOOL THAT I AM
I OVERLOOKED
MY PROMISE
TO LOVE HER FOREVER
FOR WORSE
OR FOR BETTER
WE'D STILL BE
TOGETHER
IF I'D LOVED HER
IF I HAD LOVED
HER BY THE BOOK
