WEDDING SONG FOR HOLLY
Words and Music by Judy Collins

With ribbon of silk and a rainbow of light
With an old fashioned tune so familiar and right
With the planets that turn in eternity's flight
We will dance at your wedding tonight.
Holly Ann, Holly Ann, beautiful bride.
Harvey, your groom, there by your side.
May the rivers you cross be as joyful as wide
And we'll dance at your wedding tonight.
With the Columbine blooms in diamonds of dew,
With something that's old, and something that's new,
With the memory of childhood that calls after you.
We will dance at your wedding tonight.
Holly Ann, Holly Ann, sister of mine.
Harvey, your love, with you entwined.
May you always be joined in spirit and mind.
And we'll dance at your wedding tonight.
Yesterday's sun was eclipsed by the moon.
And today the sunlight beams.
So may your shadows pass in a day.
May you not forget your dreams
With the sunlight that shines and the rivers that bend,
With the seasons returning again and again,
With the primrose, the swallow, the lark, and the wren,
We will dance at your wedding tonight.
Holly Ann, Holly Ann, beautiful bride.
Harvey, your groom, there by your side.
May the rivers you cross be as joyful as wide.
May the Gods and the Goddesses be on your side.
May you always be joyous in spirit and mind.
And we'll dance at your wedding tonight.
