At last my dreams come true 
Today he said "I do" 
Friends said it couldn't be done 
But all his love I know I've won 
'Cause 3rd finger, left hand 
That's where he placed the wedding band 

He walked right up to me 
& pledged his love for me 
I longed to hear him say 
The sweet words he spoke that day 
Made me feel so good inside 
The tears came to my eyes 
I love him above the rest 
'Cause in my book he's the best 

'Cause he did something that no one else did 
Friends said it couldn't be done 
But all his love I know I've won 
'Cause 3rd finger, left hand 
That's where he placed the wedding band 

His words were precious few 
But all along my heart knew 
That no other boys in line 
Could ever change my mind 
Other boys I sent away 
I locked my heart till our wedding day 
I love him above the rest 
'Cause in my book he's the best 

'Cause he did something that no one else did 
Friends said it couldn't be done 
But all his love I know I've won 
'Cause 3rd finger, left hand 
That's where he placed the wedding band 

3rd finger, left hand 
That's where he placed the wedding band
