White on white, lace on satin Blue velvet ribbons on her bouquet White on white, lace on satin My little angel is getting married today Here she comes in her wedding gown lookin' like a queen She has been my only love since she was thirteen I've been dreaming of this day and how proud I'd be When she came walkin' down the aisle and held out her hand to me White on white, lace on satin Blue velvet ribbons on her bouquet White on white, lace on satin My little angel is getting married today I'll be waiting to kiss the bride when her name is new Standing oh, so close to her silently saying "I do" I'll be holding back my tears till she's gone away Cause she'll belong to someone else when the organ starts to play White on white, lace on satin Blue velvet ribbons on her bouquet White on white, lace on satin My little angel is ge-e-etting ma-a-rried today
