Prairie Wedding lyrics
We only knew each other by letter
When I met her over the train
When the smoke cleared and the dust was still
She was standing there speaking my name
I guarantee she looked like an angel
I couldn't think of what I should say
But when Adam saw Eve in the garden
I believe he felt the selfsame way
I handed her up on the wagon
And I loaded up her trunk behind
She was sitting up there with the gold in her hair
I tried to get a hope on my mind
You think that you could love me, Mary?
You think we got a chance of a life
Do you think that you could love me, Mary?
Now you are to be my wife
We finally headed out of the station
And drove up my home trail
[- From :http://www.elyrics.net/read/k/kenny-rogers-lyrics/prairie-wedding-lyrics.html -]
And when we came to the farm she laid a hand on my arm
I thought my resolution would fail
Now froze as she stepped through the doorway
And I stood there as still as could be
I said, "I know, it ain't much it needs a woman's touch
Perhaps she turned around and looked at me"
Do you think that?
We had a prairie wedding
There was a preacher and a neighbor or two
I gave my golden thing, a gold wedding ring
And the both of us said, "I do"
Now when the sun is going down in the prairie
And the golden hair is a flame
I say, "Do you really love me, Mary?"
I hold her and I whisper her name
Do you think that? Watch Prairie Wedding video
