    I heard church bells ringing,
    I heard a choir singing.
    I saw my love walk down the aisle.
    On his finger, she placed a ring, oh, oh.
    I saw them holding hands
    he was standing there with my girl.
    I heard them promise 'til death do us part.
    Each word was a pain to my heart.
    Oh. All I could do, all I could do was cry.
    All I could do was cry.
    I was losing the girl that I loved,
    and all I could do was cry.
    And now the wedding is over,
    the rice, rice has been thrown over their heads.
    For them, life has just begun but mine is at an end
    Oh. All I could do, all I could do was cry.
    All I could do was cry.
    I was losing the girl that I loved,
    And all I could do was cry.
