Father of the bride
Daughter by your side
Can she see your skin has paled
Underneath the wedding veil?
Father of the bride
Terror in your eyes
As you're walking down the aisle
Try and force that tired smile
Something borrowed, something blue
Is how you feel at night
It's the way of the world
You are the father of the bride

Father of the bride
Pinching at his side
Did you picture her in white
When you were teaching her to drive?
Father of the bride
Crow's feet in your eyes
How you wish that that first dance
Would just last a million years
Not to keep or to hold
You're not a prison guard
It's the way of the world
You are the father of the bride
Giving her away when ready
Giving her away when ready
Giving her away when ready
Ooh you're giving her away, hey, hey
Giving her away, hey, hey
Giving her away, hey, hey

Father of the bride
How can you describe
What you're feeling on this day?
Hands catching her bouquet
Father of the bride
Where are you tonight?
Because she's not your little girl
On your shoulders anymore
And tomorrow's grandkids
Or maybe it's a hearse
It's a blessing, a curse
You are the father of the bride (Here we go!)
Father of the bride
Father of the bride
Father of the bride

You are the father of the bride
