Catherine Hamilton

Dressed in her wedding gown, mother is crying
He hasn't appeared
Standing alone at the altar, so proud
But she's brought to tears
Patiently waiting, let's hope he arrives
Oh, no, don't let her down
This love she has planned for
This day she will stand for is falling down

It's falling down (So sad but she)
It's falling down (Just can't be)
It's falling down (It's happening to her)

Everyone can see her
How he's let her down
They could never know her
How she's feeling

Catherine Hamilton, twenty years older
Remembers the day
The tears and the heartaches
The pity, the handshakes
The price she paid

Dressed in her wedding gown, mother is crying
The picture's so clear
But life it still rambles by
So, Cathy, dry your eyes, hide your tears

Hide your tears (So sad but she)
Oh, hide your tears (Just can't be)
Oh, hide your tears (It's happening to her)

Everyone can see her
How he's let her down
They could never know her
How she's feeling

Catherine Hamilton, twenty years older
Remembers the day
The tears and the heartaches
The pity, the handshakes
The price she paid
