Spring is here, th-e-e sky is blue, whoa-oh-oh
Birds all sing as if they knew
Today's the day we'll say "I do"
And we'll never be lonely anymore because we're

Goin' to the chapel
And we're gonna get ma-a-arried
Goin' to the chapel
And we're gonna get ma-a-arried
Gee, I really love you
And we're gonna get ma-a-arried
Goin' to the chapel of love

Bells will ring, the-e-e sun will shine, whoa-oh-oh
I'll be his and he'll be mine
We'll love until the end of time
And we'll never be lonely anymore because we're

Goin' to the chapel
And we're gonna get ma-a-arried
Goin' to the chapel
And we're gonna get ma-a-arried
Gee, I really love you
And we're gonna get ma-a-arried
Goin' to the chapel of love

heritage lost

Forty undesignated heritage buildings along Colborne St in Brantford may be demolished starting Tuesday. This is perhaps the longest stretch of pre-Confederate buildings in Ontario, but the buildings were expropriated by the city and have been allowed to decay and deteriorate for 30 years. The city is bitterly divided on whether to try to save this stretch or have the (by now) eyesore razed. Demolition of the windows and interiors has already begun in anticipation of a final vote.
