The Wedding

The Wedding - Runrig

Written by：Calum MacDonald/Rory MacDonald

He air was swaying round the first guitar

I remember

We crossed the river

By the ostrum wall 'neath the stars

To where the wedding filled the hall

My father sang a song

Crossing the river

Caught in the rain

Crossing the rhythm

Caught in the rain

Chased Cathy round the trestles

At the edge of the eightsome

We watched the lovers

Round the lodge at the edge of the sea

White lights and wooden boards

We watched the village take the floor

Crossing the river caught in the rain

Crossing the rhythm caught in the rain

There is so much I could say to you but

Tonight I'm sticking to the past like glue

When life gets tough when times get hard

You have to know exactly who you are

Arm in arm hand in hand

You take this woman you take this man

Spirit dancing evermore

Endless circles round the floor

Last night

I drove my children down by the river

Past the windows of the hall

And the dusts of our years

Then the radio came on

They said someone's playing our song

Crossing the river caught in the rain

Crossing the rhythm caught in the rain

Crossing the river caught in the rain

Crossing the rhythm caught

Caught in the rain

Crossing
