I wrote this song many years ago (1976) for my and my wife Michele's wedding. This version was recorded in the mid-80s. Have since played it at many other wedding ceremonies.
ALL OUR LOVED ONES SURROUND US
WITNESSES TO THE FLIGHT
OF TWO LOVERS AMONG YOU
REACHING FOR THE LIGHT
AND AS THE SPIRIT MOVES WITHIN YOU
BRINGING MAGIC TO THIS BIRTH
LET US CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER AND BRING
PEACE UPON THIS EARTH
NOW THE WAY IS SET BEFORE US
AND WE ARE PILGRIMS ONE AND ALL
AND THERE ARE SIGNS ALONG TO GUIDE US
AND FRIENDS TO HELP US WHEN WE FALL
BUT AS WE ENTERED THIS WORLD NAKED
ALONE & NAKED SHALL WE GO
TAKING NOTHING BUT THE
GIFT THAT HE HAS LAID UPON OUR SOUL
WITH THE FAITH OF THE DYING
AND WITH THE HEART OF A CHILD
WE CAN HARVEST THE FLOWERS
OF THE LOVE GROWING WILD
AND ALL OF THE SOULS GATHERED ROUND US
SPEAK THE TRUTH THRU THEIR EYES
AND AS YOU SEND THIS SONG BACK TO ME
I CAN FEEL OUR SPIRITS RISE
INTO THE LAP OF THE FATHER
WHERE ALL OUR TROUBLES WILL HAVE FLOWN
AND ON THE WINGS OF LOVE
WE WILL ALL FLY HOME
ON THE WINGS OF LOVE
WE WILL ALL FLY HOME..YEAH, YEAH…
ON THE WINGS OF LOVE
WE WILL ALL FLY HOME
