This is a 1971 hit by Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul and Mary. Paul had first performed the song as the best man at the wedding of Peter Yarrow (co-member of Peter, Paul and Mary) in 1969.  Since that time, this song has also been covered by Petula Clark, Harry Belafonte, Mary MacGregor, The Lettermen and Captain & Tenille. This beautifully simple, acoustic, love ballad has become a staple at many weddings since the 1970's mainly because the lyrics speak not only to the couple's love and personal bond, but also of a larger, spiritual connection.
