Allegro: What a Lovely Day for a Wedding

Lyrics

[Chorus: Bryn Terfel & Chorus of Opera North] What a lovely day for a wedding Not a cloud to darken the sky It's a treat to meet at a wedding To laugh and to gossip and to cry What a lovely day for a wedding What a day for two to be tied It's a lovely day for a wedding But not for the father of the bride [Verse 1: Bryn Terfel & Chorus of Opera North] What I'm about to get I don't exactly need A doctor for a son-in-law Another mouth to feed What he's about to get He doesn't really need A doctor for a son-in-law Another mouth to feed [Chorus: Bryn Terfel & Chorus of Opera North] What a lovely day for a wedding There's a lively tang in the air It's a treat to meet at a wedding When families are letting down their hair What a lovely day for a wedding We have come by motor and shay It's a treat to meet at a wedding And say what we usually say: [Verse 2: Chorus of Opera North] What can he see in her?

What a day for two to be tied It's a lovely day for a wedding But not for the father of the bride! It's a lovely day for a wedding Not a cloud to darken the sky It's a lovely day for a wedding As long as the bridegroom isn't I
