Re: In honor of anniversaries...

  • Song title: Such Great HeightsArtist: originally performed by The Postal Service, we used the Iron and Wine version for our first dance.Lyrics: I am thinking it's a sign that the frecklesIn our eyes are mirror images and whenWe kiss they're perfectly alignedAnd I have to speculate that God himselfDid make us into corresponding shapes likePuzzle pieces from the clayAnd true, it may seem like a stretch, butIts thoughts like this that catch my troubledHead when you're away when I am missing you to deathWhen you are out there on the road forSeveral weeks of shows and when you scanThe radio, I hope this song will guide you home
    They will see us waving from such greatHeights, 'come down now,' they'll sayBut everything looks perfect from far away,'come down now,' but we'll stay...
    I tried my best to leave this all on yourMachine but the persistent beat it soundedThin upon listeningAnd that frankly will not fly. You will hearThe shrillest highs and lowest lows withThe windows down when this is guiding you home

  • First Dance by Corey Smith

    The leaves are fallin down
    The air is cool and clear
    It's a seasonal change
    And the night we've waited for is here
    And we've exchanged the rings
    And we've taken the vows
    The ceremony's over baby
    And the honeymoon is starting now

    This is the first dance
    But it won't be the last
    Timeless moments like this
    They won't ever be a thing of the past
    We'll spark a candle tonight
    An eternal flame of romance
    When the honeymoon is over baby
    I'll still move you like the first dance

    I've been scared as hell
    Cause I've heard how the story goes
    You get married and you settle down
    And the passion withers like a rose
    But I refuse to lose
    This thing we have together
    And I'll keep the fire burning baby
    Burning both ends of forever

    This is the first dance
    But it won't be the last
    Timeless moments like this
    They won't ever be a thing of the past
    We'll spark a candle tonight
    An eternal flame of romance
    When the honeymoon is over baby
    I'll still move you like the first dance

    I see heaven in your eyes
    And feel god movin in this room
    Ain't love the greatest gift of all
    Ain't it amazing what desire can do

    This is the first dance
    But it won't be the last
    Timeless moments like this
    They won't ever be a thing of the past
    We'll spark a candle tonight
    An eternal flame of romance
    When the honeymoon is over baby
    I'll still move you like the first dance

    Yeah I'll always turn you on
    And move you like the first dance

  • so....we spent about 20 minutes trying to remember the name of our song last weekend. We did track it down.

    And now I only remember it involved "magic" in the lyrics.

  • Dan Powel... Pieces

    Took a change to see me
    Now that you believe me
    It's like I'm dreaming sweetly
    When you're here beside me
    And I have never felt so
    Like I've found which way to go
    When you touch me gently
    I remember how you know

    And the sun shines rings around your smile
    And I'm here laughing like a child
    There's just one place love can start
    With the pieces of my heart

    Changes my stars to find you
    Lost the mask and broke through
    No more secrets from you
    I would lose to love you
    And I have never felt so
    Like a man that's been set free
    I can spread my arms now
    You can place your trust in me

    And the sun shines rings around your smile
    And I'm here laughing like a child
    There's just one place love can start
    With the pieces of my heart

    I can't stand to lose you
    To break would never get through
    And I can only love you if I use all the pieces of my heart

    And the sun shines rings around your smile
    And I'm here laughing like a child
    There's just one place love can start
    With the pieces of my heart

  • Song title: I'm Yours

    Artist:Jason Maraz

    Lyrics:

    Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
    I tried to be chill but your so hot that I melted
    I fell right through the cracks, now I'm tryin to get back
    before the cool done run out I'll be givin it my best test
    and nothin's gonna stop me but divine intervention
    I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

    But I won't hesitate no more,
    no more, it cannot wait
    I'm yours

    Well open up your mind and see like me
    open up your plans and damn you're free
    look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
    listen to the music at the moment people dance and sing
    Were just one big family
    And it's our godforsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

    So, i won't hesitate no more,
    no more, it cannot wait i'm sure
    there's no need to complicate our time is short
    this is our fate
    I'm yours

    Scooch on over closer, dear
    And I will nibble your ear

    I've been spendin' way too long checkin' my tongue in the mirror
    and bendin' over backwards just to try to see it clearer
    But my breath fogged up the glass
    and so I drew a new face and I laughed
    I guess what I'd be sayin' is there ain't no better reason
    to rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
    it's what we aim to do
    our name is our virtue

    But I won't hesitate no more,
    no more it cannot wait
    I'm yours

    well open up your mind and see like me
    open up your plans and damn you're free
    look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
    listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
    ah, la one big family
    it's your god forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved

    open up your mind and see like me
    open up your plans and damn you're free
    look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
    listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
    ah, la happy family
    it's our god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved

    it's our god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved
    listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
    ah, la peaceful melodies
    it's you god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved

  • Song title: Love and Happiness

    Artist: Al Green

    Lyrics:Love and happiness...
    something that can make you do wrong, make you do right...
    Love...

    Love and happiness
    Wait a minute...
    something's going wrong
    someone's on the phone
    three o'clock in the morning
    talkin' about how she can make it right
    well,
    happiness is when you really feel good with somebody
    nothing wrong with being in one with someone
    oh, baby, love and happiness
    love and happiness...
    love and happiness...

    Love and happiness
    You be good to me
    I'll be good to you
    we'll be together
    we'll see each other
    walk away with victory
    oh baby,
    love and happiness...
    love and happiness...

    Make you do right... love'll make you do wrong...
    make you come home early...
    make you stay out all night long...
    the power of love...

    wait a minute,
    let me tell you...
    the power of love...
    make you do right... love'll make you do wrong...
    make you want to dance...
    love and happiness...
    love and happiness...

    love is... wait a minute... love is...
    walkin' together...
    talkin' together...
    say it again...
    say it together...
    Mmmm....

    We?ll spend some time forever
    We?ll never feel bad anymore

    Me too!  It always makes me smile, it was on the radio and I was singing along like a fool. This have to be my all time favorite song even if without being our wedding song.

  • Title: Nothing Else Matters

    Artist: Metallica

     

    Lyrics:

    So close, no matter how far
    Couldn't be much more from the heart
    Forever trusting who we are
    and nothing else matters

    Never opened myself this way
    Life is ours, we live it our way
    All these words I don't just say
    and nothing else matters

    Trust I seek and I find in you
    Every day for us something new
    Open mind for a different view
    and nothing else matters

    never cared for what they do
    never cared for what they know
    but I know

    So close, no matter how far
    Couldn't be much more from the heart
    Forever trusting who we are
    and nothing else matters

    never cared for what they do
    never cared for what they know
    but I know

    Never opened myself this way
    Life is ours, we live it our way
    All these words I don't just say

    Trust I seek and I find in you
    Every day for us, something new
    Open mind for a different view
    and nothing else matters

    never cared for what they say
    never cared for games they play
    never cared for what they do
    never cared for what they know
    and I know

    So close, no matter how far
    Couldn't be much more from the heart
    Forever trusting who we are
    No, nothing else matters

  • Title: "Oh"

    Artist: Dave Matthews

    Lyrics:

    "Oh"

    The world is blowing up
    The world is caving in
    The world has lost her way again
    But you are here with me
    But you are here with me
    Makes it ok

    I hear you still talk to me
    As if you're sitting in that dusty chair
    Makes the hours easier to bare
    I know despite the years alone
    I'll always listen to you sing your sweet song
    And if it's all the same to you

    I love you oh so well
    Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow
    I love you oh so well
    Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
    Love you oh so well

    And it's cold and darkness falls
    It's as if you're in the next room so alive
    I could swear I hear you singing to me

    I love you oh so well
    Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow
    I love you oh so well
    Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
    Love you oh so well

    The world is blowing up
    The world is caving in
    The world has lost her way again
    But you are here with me
    But you are here with me
    Makes it ok
    Oh girl you are singing to me still
    Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow
    I love you oh so well
    Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
    Love you oh so well

    "Beyond the Sea"

     

     Somewhere beyond the sea
    somewhere waiting for me
    my lover stands on golden sands
    and watches the ships that go sailin'

    Somewhere beyond the sea
    she's there watching for me
    If I could fly like birds on high
    then straight to her arms
    I'd go sailin'

    It's far beyond the stars
    it's near beyond the moon
    I know beyond a doubt
    my heart will lead me there soon

    We'll meet beyond the shore
    we'll kiss just as before
    Happy we'll be beyond the sea
    and never again I'll go sailin'

    I know beyond a doubt
    my heart will lead me there soon
    We'll meet (I know we'll meet) beyond the shore
    We'll kiss just as before
    Happy we'll be beyond the sea
    and never again I'll go sailin'

    no more sailin'
    so long sailin'
    bye bye sailin'...
    move on out captain

  • Song title: Better Together

    Artist: Jack Johnson

    Lyrics: 

    There is no combination of words I could put on the postcard
    And no song that I could sing, but I can try because this is your heart and this is
    Our dreams and they are made out of real things
    Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia-toned loving
    Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart, like
    Why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
    I'll tell you one thing, it's so much better when we're together

    Mmm, so much better when we're together
    Yeh, we'll look at the stars when we're together
    Well it's so much better when we're together
    Yeh, it's so much better when we're together

    All of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight
    But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
    Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see
    They'll be gone too, to many things I have to do
    But follow these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
    I'd be under the impression, I was somewhere in between
    With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
    Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now

    Yeh, so much better when we're together
    Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
    Well, it's so much better when we're together
    Yeh, so much better when we're together

    I believe in memories because they look so,
    So pretty when I sleep
    And when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me
    But there is not enough time
    And there is no, no song I could sing
    And there is no combination of words I could say
    But I will still tell you one thing
    We're better together
    We so much better when we're together
    We so much better when we're together

  • ETA: And now I'm totally tearing up reading the lyrics and thinking of our wedding night.  I may just have to watch the video this weekend. :) 

    Title: Book of Love

    Artist: Peter Gabriel

    Lyrics:

    The book of love is long and boring
    No one can lift the damn thing
    It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
    But I
    I love it when you read to me
    And you
    You can read me anything
    The book of love has music in it
    In fact that's where music comes from
    Some of it is just transcendental
    Some of it is just really dumb
    But I
    I love it when you sing to me
    And you
    You can sing me anything
    The book of love is long and boring
    And written very long ago
    It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
    And things we're all too young to know
    But I
    I love it when you give me things
    And you
    You ought to give me wedding rings
    And I
    I love it when you give me things
    And you
    You ought to give me wedding rings
    And I
    I love it when you give me things
    And you
    You ought to give me wedding rings
    You ought to give me wedding rings

  • In My Life by the Beatles. Can't c&p from phone.
  • Crush by Dave Matthews

    Crazy, how it feels tonight.
    Crazy, how you make it all alright, love.

    Crush me,
    With those things you do
    And I'll do for you
    Anything, too, oh...

    Sitting, smoking, feeling high...

    And in this moment
    Oh, it feels so right...

    Lovely lady, I am at your feet,
    Oh, God, I want you so badly.
    And I wonder this:
    Could tomorrow be so wonderous
    As you lay sleeping?

    Let's go drive 'til morning comes,
    Watch the sunrise and fill our souls up,
    And drink some wine 'till we get drunk.
    Yeah...

    It's crazy, I'm thinking,
    Just knowing that the world is round
    And here I'm dancing on the ground
    Am I right side up or upside down?
    And is this real, or am I dreaming?

    Lovely lady, let me drink you, please.
    Won't spill a drop, no, I promise you
    Lying under this spell you cast on me
    Each moment the more I love you.

    Crush me, come on
    Oh, yeah...

    It's crazy, I'm thinking
    Just knowing that the world is round
    And here I'm dancing on the ground
    Am I right side up or upside down?
    Is this real at all, or am I dreaming?

    Lovely lady, I will treat you sweetly
    Adore you, I mean...
    You Crush me,
    And it's times like these
    When I think that feeling
    I know how I love you.

    Come on, come on, baby...

    It's crazy, I'm thinking
    Just as long as you're around
    And here I'll be dancing on the ground
    Am I right side up or upside down?
    To each other we'll be facing
    My love, my love,
    We'll beat back the pain we've found
    You know I mean to tell you
    All the things I've been thinking
    Deep inside, my friend.
    Each moment the more I love you.

    Crush me, come on, baby...

    So much you have given up
    That I would give you back, again and again.
    Oh, my love, many now hold you,
    But please, please, just let me, always.

    Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now

    Yeh, so much better when we're together
    Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
    Well, it's so much better when we're together
    Yeh, so much better when we're together

    I believe in memories because they look so,
    So pretty when I sleep
    And when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me
    But there is not enough time
    And there is no, no song I could sing
    And there is no combination of words I could say
    But I will still tell you one thing
    We're better together
    We so much better when we're together
    We so much better when we're together

    I was hoping someone else had this-- was way too lazy to find the info myself.

    Song title: Better Together

    Artist: Jack Johnson

    Lyrics: 

    There is no combination of words I could put on the postcard
    And no song that I could sing, but I can try because this is your heart and this is
    Our dreams and they are made out of real things
    Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia-toned loving
    Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart, like
    Why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
    I'll tell you one thing, it's so much better when we're together

    Mmm, so much better when we're together
    Yeh, we'll look at the stars when we're together
    Well it's so much better when we're together
    Yeh, it's so much better when we're together

    All of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight
    But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
    Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see
    They'll be gone too, to many things I have to do
    But follow these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
    I'd be under the impression, I was somewhere in between
    With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
    Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now

    Yeh, so much better when we're together
    Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
    Well, it's so much better when we're together
    Yeh, so much better when we're together

    I believe in memories because they look so,
    So pretty when I sleep
    And when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me
    But there is not enough time
    And there is no, no song I could sing
    And there is no combination of words I could say
    But I will still tell you one thing
    We're better together
    We so much better when we're together
    We so much better when we're together

    I was hoping someone else had this-- was way too lazy to find the info myself.

    Lol, I just googled it and c&p'd.  Yay song twin!  I didn't know anyone else had this from the board!

  • Song title:The Way I Am

    Artist: Ingrid Michaelson

    Lyrics: 

    If you were falling, then I would catch you
    You need a light, I'd find a match

    Cuz I love the way you say good morning
    And you take me the way I am

    If you are chilly, here take my sweater
    Your head is aching; I'll make it better

    Cuz I love the way you call me baby
    And you take me the way I am

    I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair
    Sew on patches to all you tear

    Cuz I love you more than I could ever promise
    And you take me the way I am
    You take me the way I am
    You take me the way I am

  • Song title: Lost in this Moment

    Artist: Big and Rich

    Lyrics:

    See your mama and the candles and the tears and roses
    I see your daddy walk his daughter down the isle
    And my knees start to tremble as I tell the preacher
    Don't she look beautiful tonight?

    All the wonderful words in my head I've been thinkin'
    Ya know I wanna say em all just right
    I lift your veil and angels start singing
    Such a heavenly sight

    Lost in this moment with you
    I am completely consumed
    My feeling's so absolute
    There's no doubt
    Sealing our love with a kiss
    Waited my whole life for this
    Watching all my dreams come true
    Lost in this moment with you

    I smell the jasmine floatin' in the air like a love song
    Watch my words draw sweet tears from your eyes
    Bow our heads while the preacher talks to Jesus
    Please bless this brand new life, yeah

    Lost in this moment with you
    I am completely consumed
    My feeling's so absolute
    There's no doubt
    Sealing our love with a kiss
    Waited my whole life for this
    Watching all my dreams come true
    Lost in this moment with you

    Lost in this moment with you
    I am completely consumed
    My feeling's so absolute
    There's no doubt
    Sealing our love with a kiss
    Waited my whole life for this
    Watching all my dreams come true
    Lost in this moment with you

    Lost in the moment
    In this moment with you
    Lost in the moment
    Lost in the moment
    In this moment with you
    Lost in the moment
