Oh, so long, for this night I've prayed That a star would guide you my way To share with me this special day Where a ribbon's in the sky for our love If allowed, may I touch your hand? And if pleased, may I once again? So that you, too, will understand There's a ribbon in the sky for our love This is not a coincidence And far more than a lucky chance But what is that was always meant Is our ribbon in the sky for our love Love, we can't lose with God on our side We'll find strength in each tear we cry From now on, it will be you and I And our ribbon in the sky Ribbon in the sky A ribbon in the sky for our love There's a ribbon in the sky for our love
