There’s no doubt that life has its ups and downs, but this wedding ceremony reading – the lyrics to the much-loved song, Days Like This by Van Morrison – encourages you to take a moment to focus on the good things. We can think of no better day than on your wedding day to do just that, as after months of planning and excitement “everything falls into place, like the flick of a switch” just like it did when you fell in love. This is a perfect choice for any music fans as Northern Irish singer Van Morrison is a true legend of his craft.
Days Like This by Van Morrison
When it’s not always raining there’ll be days like this
When there’s no one complaining there’ll be days like this
When everything falls into place like the flick of a switch
Well my mama told me there’ll be days like this
When you don’t need to worry there’ll be days like this
When no one’s in a hurry there’ll be days like this
When you don’t get betrayed by that old Judas kiss
Oh my mama told me there’ll be days like this
When you don’t need an answer there’ll be days like this
When you don’t meet a chancer there’ll be days like this
When all the parts of the puzzle start to look like they fit it
Then I must remember there’ll be days like this
There’ll be days like this
When everyone is up front and they’re not playing tricks
When you don’t have no freeloaders out to get their kicks
When it’s nobody’s business the way that you want to live
I just have to remember there’ll be days like this
When no one steps on my dreams there’ll be days like this
When people understand what I mean there’ll be days like this
When you ring out the changes of how everything is
Well my mama told me there’ll be days like this
Oh my mama told me
There’ll be days like this
