Sleeping with the Past - Elton John lyrics

I Never Knew Her Name
Elton John Song Lyrics

Artist: Elton John
Album: Sleeping with the Past (1989)

Well she swept through the church
Like a sweet sunday prayer
While the choir sang son of heaven
And the groom just walked on air.

I was killing time with jesus
When the wedding bells began
And I saw the most beautiful woman
Getting married to a handsome man.

And she walked like a mystery
And she passed like summer rain
And she said I do like an angel
But I never knew her name.

Oh the congregation gathered
But in darkness I remained
In love with the bride of a handsome man
But I never knew her name.

In the shadow of the holy
Oh I heard my tell-tale heart
Whisper words that never reached her
As her vows were made at last.

Oh the preacher with his blessing
Pronounced them man and wife
And I saw the most beautiful woman
Make a promise to be kept for life.
