What is everyone using, or have used for a first dance song?
I've been to different websites on this one and just can't find anything I'm looking for. I really would like to stay away from Counrty (I love Country), but I'm looking for something a little different. Maybe a song not used to often for a first dance song in the light or slow rock area.
When we picked ours it was a little more unique than I think it is now but I still wouldn't consider it a 'standard'. Ours is 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

Bon Jovi - Thank You for Loving Me
It's hard for me to say the things I want to say sometimes There's no one here but you and me And that broken old street light Lock the doors We'll leave the world outside All I've got to give to you Are these five words when I
Chorus: Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldn't see For parting my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me Thank you for loving me
I never knew I had a dream Until that dream was you When I look into your eyes The sky's a different blue Cross my heart I wear no disguise If I tried, you'd make believe That you believed my lies
Chorus: Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldn't see For parting my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me
You pick me up when I fall down You ring the bell before they count me out If I was drowning you would part the sea And risk your own life to rescue me
Solo
Lock the doors We'll leave the world outside All I've got to give to you Are these five words when I
Chorus: Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldn't see You parted my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me
When I couldn't fly Oh, you gave me wings You parted my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me

Re: first dance???
I was thinking about Sade by your side, but FH really really loves the linda rondstadt & aaron neville song, I don't know much, cheesey, but sweet at the same time

Re: first dance???
The minute I heard this song, I was hooked.
True Companion by Mark Cohn
Baby I’ve been searching like everybody else Can’t say nothing different about myself Sometimes I’m an angel And sometimes I’m cruel And when it comes to love I’m just another fool Yes, I’ll climb a mountain I’m gonna swim the sea There ain’t no act of God girl Could keep you safe from me My arms are reaching out Out across this canyon I’m asking you to be my true companion True companion True companion
So don’t you dare and try to walk away I’ve got my heart set on our wedding day I’ve got this vision of a girl in white Made my decision that it’s you allright And when I take your hand I’ll watch my heart set sail I’ll take my trembling fingers And I’ll lift up your veil Then I’ll take you home And with wild abandon Make love to you just like a true companion You are my true companion I got a true companion True companion
When the years have done irreparable harm I can see us walking slowly arm in arm Just like the couple on the corner do ‘Cause girl I will always be in love with you And when I look in your eyes I’ll still see that spark Until the shadows fall Until the room grows dark Then when I leave this Earth I’ll be with the angels standin’ I’ll be out there waiting for my true companion Just for my true companion True companion True companion

Try looking at other era's- I saw that one bride had my parent's song 'More' as their's and we are using a song from the 70's called 'Shining Star' by the Manhattans.

Re: first dance???
Great suggestions!
I'm going to download them all and hopefully come up with a song for our first dance this month.
I was going to use 'I need You' by Faith Hill. I love the song, but my fiance does not much care for it.
So, the search goes on
