The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I cried all the way to the altar

A smile was on my face, but tears were in my heart

Two hearts broken, and a third will soon falter

Now too late, I know that we were wrong to part

Oh, my darlin', now too late

We can't go back and start anew

Now too late, I've thrown away my chance of happiness with you

I cried all the way to the altar

Now too late, I know that we were wrong to part

Take a calendar and turn back all the pages

Take my life, turn back each day since I was born

I cried all the way to the altar

Now too late, I see the damage I have done

Oh, my darling, now too late

We can't go back and start anew

Now too late, I've thrown away my chance of happiness with you

I cried all the way to the altar

Now too late, I know that we were wrong to part
