I Never Knew Her Name

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

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

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

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

Like a mystery

Like summer rain

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

Oh, I'm in love with the bride of a handsome man

But I never knew her name

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Never knew her name

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

I never knew her name

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

I never knew her name

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
