Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

Billy Joel--Just the Way You Are

Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take 'til you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.

I said I love you, and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

Ours is Promis by Kellie Coffey

Every evening
Brings an ending
Every day becomes a legacy

Every sunset
Leads to morning
With the promise of opportunity

We can reach for the stars we find along the way
Dreaming as we learn to love everyday

Promise You will take my hand
As tomorrow comes We'll go on

We'll go on
Growing closer through the years
Moving on
Through the good times and the tears
Ever on
Another thousand circles 'round the sun
If two can be as one
We'll go on

There is music
If you listen
In the rhythm of each breath we take

Destinations
Undiscovered
Revelations from every choice we make

And I know
There are diamonds dancin' in the sky
All we have to do Is open our eyes

Promise
We'll walk side by side
As a new day dawns
We'll go on

We'll go on
Growing closer through the years
Moving on
Through the good times and the tears
Ever on
Another thousand circles 'round the sun
A new life has begun
The two of us as one
We'll go on

Moving on
Through the good times and the tears
Ever on
Another thousand circles 'round the sun
A new life has begun
When two of us are one
And we live to keep the promise

We'll go on
Ever on
We'll go on

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

From This Moment - Shania Twain


From this moment I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love I'd give my last breath
From this moment on

I give my hand to you with all my heart
Can't wait to live my life with you, can't wait to start
You and I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you

From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on

You're the reason I believe in love
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you

From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
From this moment
I will love you as long as I live
From this moment on

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

Ours will most likely be

'Ain't that a Kick in the Head' by Dean Martin

we love the rat pack

How lucky can one guy be?
I kissed her and she kissed me
Like the fella once said
Ain't that a kick in the head

The room was completely black
I hugged her and she hugged back
Like the sailor said quote
'Ain't that a hole in the boat'

My head keeps spinning
I go to sleep and keep grinning
if this is just the beginning
my life is gonna be Beautiful

I've sunshine enough to spread
it's just like the fella said
Tell me quick
Ain't love a kick in the head

Like the fella once said
And that a kick in the head

Like the sailor said quote,
'Ain't that a hole in the boat'

My head keeps spinning
I go to sleep and keep grinning
if this is just the beginning
my life is gonna be Beautiful

She's telling me
We'll be wed
She's picked out a king sized bed
I couldn't feel any better or I'd be sick
Tell me quick
Oh ain't love a kick
Tell me quick
Ain't love a kick in the head!

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

We're using 'Into the Mystic' by Van Morisson and redone by The Wallflowers. It was the song they danced to in American Wedding ('our movie':)

We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic

And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home
And when the fog horn blows I want to hear it
I don't have to fear it

And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And magnificently we will flow into the mystic

When that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home
And when that fog horn whistle blows I got to hear it
I don't have to fear it

And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will flow into the mystic
Come on girl...

Too late to stop now...

haha i actually didn't know all the exact words until i looked it up just now (especially that 3rd line!...what the heck is a bonnie boat?)

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

We are thinking about this as our first song...

ERIC BENET LYRICS

'Spend My Life with You'

I never knew such a day could come
And I never knew such a love
Could be inside of one

And I never knew what my life was for
But now that you're here I know for sure

I never knew till I looked in your eyes
I was incomplete till the day you walked into my life
And I never knew that my heart could feel
So precious and pure
One love so real

Can I just see you every morning when
I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me
Every night
Can we just feel this way together
Till the end of all time
Can I just spend my life with you

Now baby the days and the weeks
And the years will roll by
But nothing will change the love inside
Of you and I

And baby I'll never find any words
That could explain
Just how much my heart my life
My soul you've changed

Can you run to these open arms
When no one else understands
Can we tell God and the whole world
I'm your woman, and you're my man
Can't you just feel how much I love you
With one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you

No touch has ever felt so wonderful
(You are incredible)
And a deeper love I've never known
(I'll never let you go)
I swear this love is true
(Now and forever to you to you)
Can I just see you every morning when

I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me
Every night
Can we just feel this way together
Till the end of all time
Can I just spend my life with you
Can you run to these open arms

When no one else understands
Can we tell God and the whole world
You're my woman, and you're my man
Can't you just feel how much I love you
With one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you

Can I just spend my life with you
Can I just spend my life with you
(Forever here with you)
Can I just spend my life with you
Can I just see you every morning when I
Open my eyes

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

FH are I are having trouble with this one. I want sentimental lyrics and he wants something we can choreograph a fancy dance to -- btw neither of us can even dance, but that's what lessons are for, right?

Our leading contender right now is 'Come What May' from Moulin Rouge.

Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love more and more
Listen to my heart
Can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change
Winter to spring
But I love you until
The end of time

CHORUS:
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Suddenly the world seems
Such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with
Such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life
Doesn't seem such a waste
My world revolves around you

And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song
I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until
The end of time

Repeat chorus

Oh, come what may
Come what may
I will love you
I will love you
Suddenly the world seems
Such a perfect place

First Day of my Life by Bright Eyes:

'First Day Of My Life'

This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you had just woke up
And you said “this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”

So if you want to be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Then waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time is different
I mean I really think you like me



This one is ours too...yay!!!... Did you see the video for it online, its so cute.

FH wanted this too, but I over-ruled him with 'Someone Like You' also by Van Morrison.

I've been searching a long time
For someone exactly like you
I've been travelling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. Someone exactly
Like you.

I've been travellin' a hard road
Lookin' for someone exactly like you
I've been carryin' my heavy load
Waiting for the light to come
Shining through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. Someone exactly
Like you.

I've been doin' some soul searching
To find out where you're at
I've been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands
Someone like you... etc.

I've been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different
Drum.
But just lately I have
Realised
The best is yet to come.
Someone like you... etc.

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

Ours was By Your Side by Sade

You think I'd leave your side baby?
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave down when your down on your knees?
I wouldn't do that

I'll do you right when your wrong
I-----ohhh, ohhh

If only you could see into me

oh, when your cold
I'll be there to hold you tight to me
When your on the outside baby and you can't get in
I will show you, your so much better than you know
When your lost, when your alone and you can't get back again
I will find you darling I'll bring you home

If you want to cry
I am here to dry your eyes
and in no time you'll be fine

You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down when your down on your kness
I wouldn't do that

I'll do you right when your wrong
I-----I, ohhhh, ohhh

If only you could see into me

Oh when your cold
I'll be there
To hold you tight to me
Oh when your alone
I'l be there by your side baby

ETS: I'm not certain what the 1st line in the second paragraph really is. Other sites have it as 'I'll tell you you're right when you want'. I think that makes more sense than 'I'll do you right when you're wrong' but who knows

First Day of my Life by Bright Eyes:

'First Day Of My Life'




This one is ours too...yay!!!... Did you see the video for it online, its so cute.



I didn't think Bright Eyes had anything cheery enough for a wedding, but that works!

We're using Here There and Everywhere. It's a Beatles tune, but we're using a version sung by Paul McCartney only.

Lyrics:

To lead a better life I need my love to be here...

Here, making each day of the year
Changing my life with a wave of her hand
Nobody can deny that there's something there

There, running my hands through her hair
Both of us thinking how good it can be
Someone is speaking but she doesn't know he's there

I want her everywhere and if she's beside me
I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to share

Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there

I want her everywhere and if she's beside me
I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to share

Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there

To be there and everywhere
Here, there and everywhere

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

Loving Wings - Dave Matthews Band

My heart was made of broken bones
My soul a bag of stick and stones
Then you along this dusty road
Have come, my love, to take me home

And I give to you my everything
Because you've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered 'round
To hear me sing my love out loud

Ohh, ohh, ohh.
Ohh, ohh, ohh.

You lightly lifted me away
Out of a darkness cold and gray
I work beneath the midday sun
My cold blue water, you have come

And I give to you my everything
Because you've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered 'round
To hear me sing my love out loud

Ohh, ohh, ohh.
Ohh, ohh, ohh.

So take your place here next to me
And I'll take my place there next to thee
No matter how far we may roam
It's by your side I make my home

And I give to you my everything
Because you've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered 'round
To hear me sing my love out loud

Ohh, ohh, ohh.
Ohh, ohh, ohh.

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

This is ours - Feels Like Home by Chantal Kreviazuk


Something in your eyes
Makes me want to lose myself
Makes me want to lose myself
In your arms
There's something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts
The rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've felt so low
If you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

Chorus: Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where
I come from
Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

A window breaks down a long dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see through the dark there's light

If you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
If you knew how happy you are making me
I've never thought I'd love anyone so much

Chorus

Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

Re: Post your first dance song & lyrics

Ours is Danny's Song by Loggins and Messina. Different, stupid name but we love the song


People smile and tell me I'm the lucky one, and we've just begun,
Think I'm gonna have a son.
He will be like she and me, as free as a dove, conceived in love,
Sun is gonna shine above.

Chorus:
And even though we ain't got money, I'm so in love with ya honey,
And everything will bring a chain of love.
And in the morning when I rise, you bring a tear of joy to my eyes,
And tell me everything is gonna be alright.

Seems as though a month ago I beta chi, never got high,
Oh, I was a sorry guy.
And now a smile, a face, a girl that shares my name,
Now I'm through with the game, this boy will never be the same.

(To chorus:)
Pisces, Virgo rising is a very good sign, strong and kind,
And the little boy is mine.
Now I see a family where there once was none, now we've just begun,
Yeah, we're gonna fly to the sun.

(To chorus:)

Love the girl who holds the world in a paper cup, drink it up,
Love her and she'll bring you luck.
And if you find she helps your mind, buddy, take her home,
Don't you live alone, try to earn what lovers own.

We havent decided yet, but are now thinking of using 'So Blessed' By Mariah Carey



Lying beside you
This joy is so deep
I reach out and touch you
Tenderly
Looking inside you
My world is complete
I struggled to find you
Now I'm free

Precious love
Burning so deeply
Shining completely
For you

[Chorus:]
So blessed
Amazingly
Touching you now
Awakens me
You are my heart
My everything
Feeling you now
Is all I need

Adrift in the moment
So sacred and pure
Alive for you only
I am yours
As you touch me so sweetly
And you whisper my name
I feel how you love me
We are the same

Precious one
Don't ever leave me
Forever need me
This way

[Chorus]

Stay with me
Beyond the end
I treasure you
'Cause you made me whole again

[Chorus]



This was our second choice - I looooove this song!

This Very Moment
by K-C & Jojo
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I can't believe it's true
I'm standing here in front of you
And you are here with me
So unbelievable
I'll never ever let you go
My heart is yours for keeps
Lets make a vow (make a vow baby)
Right here and now (here and now)

This is the day that I've prayed for
And you are the girl of my dreams
And my place in life is right here by your side on this day
This very moment (this very moment)

Today is you and I
We celebrate a brand new life
That God has given us
Until the end of time
I hold your precious hand in mine
Promise you can trust..
these simple words
forever of my love for you

This is the day that I've prayed for
And you are the girl of my dreams
And my place in life is right here by your side on this day

My heart is is all a dream
This day was meant to be
I need you desperatly
Through all eternity
So perfect and so right
I want to share my life
I'm here by your side
From now on

This is the day that I've prayed for
And you are the girl of my dreams
And my place in life is right here by your side on this day
This very moment
This very moment
This very moment
