the wedding cake (remastered 2022) - linda martell lyrics

[verse 1]
don’t be troubled ‘bout me ‘cause i’m tired
from working ‘round the house when day is done
don’t think you’ve failed me ‘cause you can’t afford that dishwasher to make my life more fun
you know the measure of a man is much more than just the money he can make
and every woman knows a lot of joy and tears come with the wedding cake

[verse 2]
the wedding cake is not all icing and loving tender whispers in the dark
one slice is concern for your dreams, ‘fraid they won’t come true and break your heart
another slice is feeding kids and wiping noses, crying when the doorbell rings and there are roses
every woman knows a lot of give and take comes with the wedding cake
[verse 3]
it’s facing shadows of the future, praying they will fall away
as we walk toward them searching for the sun
and it’s long and anxious hours with the wolf at the door
hugs and kisses when at last we see the dawn
so when the hands of time trace tawny lines upon our face and lace our hair with strands of gray
we’ll laugh and say for all who will partake, it all comes with the wedding cake
yes, for all who will partake, it all comes with the wedding cake
oh yes, for all who will partake, it all comes with the wedding cake
