Wedding Song Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Whosondephone 

Cover art for Wedding Song lyrics by Tracy Chapman

I think you two missed the point. I agree that on my first listen through I thought it was a nice happy song. However after listening more carefully you can tell it's a sad song. You can hear it in Tracy's voice. Only in her "dreams and visions" does her lover reach out to her.

It seems to me that her lover never praises her strengths only her "faults". Or isn't good enough...

Why is she talking about being lonely and asking to be saved from the "rapture". We're talking doomsday here.
