harvey schmidt - all the dearly beloved/together forever/i do! i do! lyrics

[michael]
all the dearly beloved have gathered at last

[agnes]
faces from the future and those from the past

[michael]
distant cousins and uncles and aunts

[agnes]
the boy who took me to my very first dance

[michael]
the girl i used to think was somewhat cute

[agnes]
my mother’s uncle herbert from the inst-tute

[both]
and they’ve all of them come with one thing in mind
just to see us say, “i do”

[michael]
i do, i do, that’s all i have to say
i do, i do, i say it every day
i did, i did, i did it just last night
i said it at the church rehearsal, and i got it right
i do, i do, how easily it’s said
i wonder what would happen if i said “i don’t” instead…
i do, i do, i do
[agnes]
this morning i woke up so early
in fact, i never slept
i got down the box inside my closet
where my very best things are kept
then i fixed me a cup of nice hot tea
and i locked my door inside
then i looked at my high school photographs
and cried
and cried
and cried

[michael]
i do!
i do!
i do, i do!

[michael]
a man and a woman are meant for each other
are meant for each other as husband and wife
from this moment forward, i promise to love thee
i promise to love thee the rest of my life

[both]
together forever, forever together
for this is the promise you give
together forever, forever together
through all of the sorrow and happiness
together, as long as you live

[agnes]
to honor and cherish, forsaking all others
forsaking all others, i offer my heart
for richer, for poorer, to love and to comfort
to love and to comfort ’til death do us part

[both]
together forever, forever together
for this is the promise you give
together forever, forever together
through all of the sorrow and happiness
together as long as you live

[agnes]
there’s a strange new world
that you enter when you say, “i do”

[michael]
i do

[agnes]
such a strange new world
that you barely can believe it’s true

[michael]
it’s true

[agnes]
for your friends all shower you with shoes and rice!

[michael]
your head is spinning, and you feel so nice!

[both]
who thinks that marriage is a paradise?
i do! i do!

[agnes]
in this strange new world
that you enter when you say, “i do!”

[michael]
i do!
you can almost see that the future’s gonna be a dream-

[agnes]
come true

[both]
you can throw away your every care and doubt!
for that what married life is all about!
i do! i do! i do!

[dance break]
[agnes]
there’s a strange new world
that you enter when you say
“i do”

“i do”
that the future’s gonna be
a dream come true

for that what married life is all about!

i do!

i do! [michael]

“i do”

“i do”
you can almost see
that the future’s gonna be
a dream come true
you can throw away
your every care and doubt

i do!

[both]
i do! i do!
i do! i do!
