I remember how rough your hand felt on mine

On my wedding day

And the tears cried on my shoulder

I couldn't turn away

Well so much has happened to me

That I don't understand

All I can think of is being five years old following behind you at the beach

Tracing your footprints in the sand

Trying to walk like a man

By Our Lady Of The Roses

We lived in the shadow of the elms

I remember ma draggin' me and my sister up the street to the church

Whenever she heard those wedding bells

Well would they ever look so happy again

The handsome groom and his bride

As they stepped into that long black limousine

For their mystery ride

Well tonight you step away from me

And alone at the alter I stand

And as I watch my bride coming down the aisle I pray

For the strength to walk like a man

Well now the years have gone and I've grown

From that seed you've sown

But I didn't think there'd be so many steps

I'd have to learn on my own

Well I was young and I didn't know what to do

When I saw your best steps stolen away from you

Now I'll do what I can

I'll walk like a man

And I'll keep on walkin'
