Anaïs Mitchell - Wedding Song lyrics

Artist: Anaïs Mitchell

album: Hadestown (Original Broadway Cast Recording)


Lover, tell me if you can
Who's gonna buy the wedding bands?
Times being what they are
Hard and getting harder all the time
Lover, when I sing my song
All the rivers will sing along
And they're gonna break their banks for us
And with their gold be generous
All a-flashing in the pan, all to fashion for your hand
The rivers gonna give us the wedding bands
Lover, tell me, if you're able
Who's gonna lay the wedding table?
Times being what they are
Dark and getting darker all the time
Lover, when I sing my song
All the trees gonna sing along
And they're gonna bend their branches down
To lay their fruit upon the ground
The almond and the apple
And the sugar from the maple
The trees gonna lay the wedding table
So when you sing your song
The one your working on
Spring will come again?
Yes
Why dont you sing it then?
It isn't finished
Sing it
You wanna take me home?
Yes
Sing the song
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
How'd you do that?
I don't know
The songs not finished though
Even so it can do this?
I know
You have to finish it
Lover, tell me, when we're wed
Who's gonna make the wedding bed?
Times being what they are
Hard and getting harder all the time
Lover, when I sing my song
All the birds gonna sing along
And they'll come flying from all around
To lay their feathers on the ground
And we'll lie down in eiderdown,
A pillow 'neath our heads
The birds gonna make the wedding bed
And the trees gonna lay the wedding table
And the rivers gonna give us the wedding bands
