Lyrics[]
Liza:
Oh, they say when you marry in June,
You're a bride all your life.
Sarah:
And the bridegroom who marries in June
Gets a sweetheart for a wife
Ruth:
Winter weddings can be gay
Like a Christmas holiday
Martha:
But the June bride hears the song
Of the spring that lasts all summer long
Dorcas:
By the light of the silvery moon
Home you ride, side by side
Liza:
With the echo of Mendelssohn's tune
Liza, Sarah & Alice:
In your hearts as you ride
All:
For they say when you marry in June,
You will always be a bride.
Liza:
The day a maiden marries is a day she carries through the years
Martha & Dorcas:
The Church is full of flowers, bridal showers all passe
All:
The groom's waiting at the altar, here comes the bride,
They're each promising to love and obey
Liza:
There's madness celebrating
Every bridesmaid waiting
Just to see which one of them will catch the wedding bouquet
All:
For they say when you marry in June,
You will always, always, always, be a bride
Alice, Sarah & Docas:
In November, the snow starts to fly,
Piling up, ankle-high
Liza, Martha & Ruth:
Come December, it's up to your knee,
Still a bride's a bride-to-be
All:
January, higher still,
To the parlor window sill
Milly:
February finds a drift
And the storm that seems never to lift
Liza, Sarah & Dorcas:
March comes in like a lion, what else?
Still the snow never melts
Liza & Alice:
April showers will come, so they say
Liza:
But they don't, and it's May
All:
You're about to forget the whole thing,
All at once, one day, it's Spring
