Visit to a Church ©2014 Robert George BMI

I went to a mom and pop tuxedo shop downtown
An old man and his wife measured me up and down
He smiled and asked about the wedding day
I said, “It’s the second Saturday in May
Although we almost eloped last Fall
And got married down at City Hall”

He shook his head and said, “It’s easy to be in a rush
Sometimes all the planning gets to be too much
Then he winked at his wife and said, “Still, you wanna do it right
Holy in God’s sight
Friends n fam’ly and your blushing bride in white…

Sometimes you forget how sacred love really is
You think you can just seal it with a kiss
But remember…love is life’s greatest search
All it asks of us from time to time
Is a visit to a church”


Next week I got a voice mail from that store
It said my tux’d be late and would I wait one day more
When I stopped in the old lady apologized
Offered me a discount with teardrops in her eyes

I looked around and didn’t see that old man
So I took her hand
And she said, “Thanks for waiting but I hope you understand

Sometimes I forgot how sacred love really is
How my dreams had become as one with his
But remember….love is life’s greatest search
All it asks of us from time to time
Is a visit to a church”


That night I teared up while thinking of
How they showed me the value of love


Cos sometimes you forget how sacred love really is
You think you can just seal it with a kiss
But remember…love is life’s greatest search
All it asks of us from time to time
Is a visit to a church

A visit to a church
A visit to a church…
