Wedding Dedication

Unaccustomed as I am to public speaking…

Oh hang on, that comes later. I just thought I would take a couple of minutes on this, our wedding day, to say hello to those who can’t make it. Hello. We hope you will be thinking of us and we will do our best to raise a glass to you.

I was going to write something about my beloved, but try as I might I couldn’t quite put into words what today means to me. So I have taken the easy way out and resorted to poetry.

Bobo, this is for you;

   Sunshine, you're my only daylight,
   Sweetheart, stay cool and everything will be alright,

   Cos I've got sunshine, somewhere, sometime,
   And I will always be your sweatheart, 
   And you will always be mine,

   Sunshine, you know how hard I try,
   Sweetheart, stay close and I will treat you right,

   Cos I've got sunshine, somewhere, sometime,
   And I will always be your sweatheart,
   And you will be always be mine,

   Sunshine, your the most beautiful thing, 
   that I ever saw in my life,
   Sweetheart, I don't know why its right, 
   All I remember are the good times,

   And I can't stop this feeling,
   And I can't turn the tide,
   And I can't stop this love from falling down,
   I got nowhere to hide,

   Sunshine, you'll always be mine,
   Sunshine, you'll always be mine,
   Sunshine, you'll always be mine.

With many thanks to Francis Dunnery.
