Wedding Song
Old Man River Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

With our love I sure believe that I could reach for the stars
Even when I lose my way your love can turn me around

When you're down when you're down
I'll pick you up

Cause I feel warm babe
I feel at home babe

I feel safe when you're around
The whole world melts away
Night just turns to day
When I'm laying in your arms

I wanna love you now , I wanna love you now

I feel strong babe
I'm singing songs babe
I'm not alone when you're around

With our love I sure believe that dreams can fall from the sky
Feeling your heartbeats with mine it makes me feel so alive

When I'm down when I'm down
You'll pick me up

Cause I feel warm babe
I feel at home babe
I feel safe when you're around
The whole world melts away
Night just turns to day
When I'm laying in your arms

I wanna love you now…
