[Verse 1] I heard a note drift down the hall From an open church-house door Mama stood there with her hand on mine Like she knew what I came for White lace glowing by the pew Shoes tapping on the pine And my heart went flying up When I heard that sweetest sign
[Pre-Chorus] Now the bandroom’s bright And the family’s near Everybody’s smiling I can feel it coming here
[Chorus] Is that wedding music? (is that wedding music?) Can you hear it ring? (can you hear it ring?) Is that wedding music? That’s the sound of a brand new thing Is that wedding music? (is that wedding music?) Lord, it thrills my soul When the bells start singing Everybody knows
[Verse 2] Grandpa’s crying in the back row Trying hard to act all brave Little flower girl is spinning round Like she heard her own parade The preacher clears his throat once more And the organ takes the floor Every promise in the room Feels like heaven at the door
[Pre-Chorus] Now the aisle is wide And the moment’s near You can almost see forever Standing right here
[Chorus] Is that wedding music? (is that wedding music?) Can you hear it ring? (can you hear it ring?) Is that wedding music? That’s the sound of a brand new thing Is that wedding music? (is that wedding music?) Lord, it thrills my soul When the bells start singing Everybody knows
[Bridge] Hold on, child Love just walked in Through tears and smiles And a promise again No lonely road No leaving kind Just two old hearts With one bright line
[Chorus] Is that wedding music? (is that wedding music?) Can you hear it ring? (can you hear it ring?) Is that wedding music? That’s the sound of a brand new thing Is that wedding music? (is that wedding music?) Lord, it thrills my soul When the bells start singing Everybody knows
