[LUD]
I love my wife and I love her more
Than the way I used to love her before
She became my wife, but today she is
So don't call me early 'cause I'll be busy
Beside her, waiting for her to wake
And her eyes to open like dawn is breaking
The whole world over for me today
'Cause I can't believe that I heard her say
She would honor, love and obey 'til death do us
Pardon me if I catch my breath

When I knew my wife was the wife for me
We went out and sat by the willow tree
And I begged and pleaded, uh huh
Marry me, honey, and that is what she did

[ENSEMBLE]
Begged and pleaded, uh huh
Marry me, honey
And that is what she did

[SEENA]
Oh, how you pleaded
If you thought you needed to
You sure were wrong
You took too long
But I kept on praying
One day I'd be saying
[SEENA & WOMEN]
I love my husband, I love him more (Oh, how he pleaded)
Than the way I used to love him before (If he thought he needed to)
He became my husband, but now he is (He sure was wrong)
So don't call me early 'cause I'll be busy (He took too long)
Beside him, waiting for him to wake (But she kept on praying)
And his loving arms to reach up and take me (One day he'd be saying)
For one more trip to the Milky Way (That he would honor)
Like he did before, when I heard him say (And cherish her)
He would honor, love and obey 'til death do us
Pardon me if I catch my breath

Oh, I never thought he'd propose to me
'Til he took me out by the willow tree
And he begged and pleaded, uh huh
Marry me, honey, and that is what he did

[ENSEMBLE]
Begged and pleaded, uh huh
Marry me, honey
And that is what she did
