Best Song Wedding Poems
While the shadows fall so widely
we shall embrace a moment
for a moment will fill
all the shells empty; holding nothing
but time—days n' days
without love
The wedding procession covered
you in flowers and white
floating through the candle light
dragging crisp white fingers lightly
through lilies fair
While the shadows fall so widely
and the candle light twirled through your hair
Twist a finger, twist a lily
While the shadows fall so widely
Blush the sun rubbed rose cheeks
lift a veil, let the sun shine off your green eyes
While the shadows fall so widely
You were left a drift
your beauty beyond our realm
of beauty
While the shadows fall so widely
Lift the veil from mine eyes tonight
as goes the cloud from under your star
I see
While the shadows fall so widely
your foot astray touched the water
and you bloomed embracing me
While the shadows fall so widely
we shall embrace a moment
for a moment will fill
all the shells empty; holding nothing
but time—days n' days
without love
(verse 1)
Baby girl,
I love,
But, not enough,
You're the only one,
I'm thinkin of,
I could hide my love,
But, I'm sincere,
You're the only one,
That I can hear,
(chorus)
I Think I Love You, baby (you) x3
(verse 2)
I can be your man,
But, you're my world,
Baby, you're that,
Special kind of girl,
Baby, you're on top,
Like a canopy,
Baby girl, tell me,
That you love me,
(chorus)
I Think I Love You, baby (you) x3
Baby girl, I fell,
Inside your love,
You're the only girl,
I'm speakin of,
I never thought,
That I'd be here,
Girl, I never thought love,
Could just apear,
(Chorus)
Oh I Think I Love You, baby (I love
you) x4

The music pumps the groove,
The music makes me move,
The music lights my heart,
The music bangs so hard,
The music makes me dance,
The music brings romance,
The music crowds the place,
And the music relates,
Chorus:
The music makes me wanna dance,
All night long,
The music makes me wanna dance,
And feel this song,
The music makes me wanna love you,
All night long,
(We can love)
To The Music
The music lights my soul,
The music takes control,
The music makes you love,
The music is a drug,
The rhythm of us being in love,
Chorus 2x
We were happy;
were we not?
We were lucky;
have everything we got.
It was us;
you and me.
We were nothing,
but meant to be.
All was perfect,
yet tell me why?
Why am I walking down the aisle,
and the one at the end isn`t you?
At the side you stood,
smiling at me.
My tears were ruining the festive mood,
Is this how you ought to be?
Can`t you take me away?
Why, for my happiness, you pray?
When you know I will never be,
without you with me.
My heart is killing me inside,
I walk to the end,
he takes my side
we take our vows.
And this is where it ends,
I`ll be apart from you
I can`t imagine life
without you
But what I hate the most
is not that I belong to someone else,
but your heart,
you will give to another lady.
I walk out with him
faking a smile
thinking I`ll be alright
when I see you again
I rode the car
he clutched my hand
I see you through the mirror
with a girl by your side.
I felt I could die.
Love's undeniable journey
explores all life,touches an
amazing earth only you and
I can share between time.
All ups n' downs come with
Fortune n' price, but together
We will shatter a mountain of
Rock.
A place we can go hide closely
cuddled cave, against the
Closure of your misled arms,
Wrapped tightly around a spin
Of Saturn's that ring me.
As Pluto's fire, breaks guard
closer to the sun.....Where GOD
GAVE ME YOU] And an UNchained
melody to sing.
Time has shown me, how special you are
My devotion to you is more than you can stand
Sometimes I question if you’re too good to be my man
Although I know I earned you honestly
I feel I’m not good enough for you, but you’re perfect to me
Chorus
Everything I need is in you
Waiting for me to let it out
I want for nothing because of you
Our love fulfilled my drought
Your touch is like none other
It sends chills down my spine
Wanting you more and more
It’s been a very long while
But those brown eyes call to me
Whispering, B-jay & hesitantly I’m reminded
You’re perfect to me
Chorus
Everything I need is in you
Waiting for me to let it out
I want for nothing because of you
Our love fulfilled my drought
I don’t know, I can’t explain exactly what it is
To some it up into words, couldn’t say what I feel
But if I must put it into words I’d say
I never saw it coming, and that you’re perfect to me
Bridge
I’ll always be here
No matter what’s going on
Depend on the unknown
I’ll Stand alone
For you, I believe in
As for as my eyes can see
I don’t know what else to say but
You’re perfect to me
She lays in his arms
he asks her what's wrong
the silence you keep
and the smile you fake
I know that something's on your mind
She says i don't understand
how someone like you
could love me the way you do
and he says
You are the one
that makes my heart beat
that completes me
never look down upon your soul
you are the one
that makes my hands shake
you're my whole life babe
you make me feel so whole
so don't underestimate
what you do for a wounded soul
I looked everywhere for someone to save me
and finally
you are the one
they sit down for dinner
he says it's been so long since we've been together
and there's something that I have to say
he gets on one knee and pulls out a ring
I cant't imagine why you're here to this day
but I hope there is not coming our way
and she says
You are the one
that makes my heart beat
that completes me
never look down upon your soul
you are the one
that makes my hands shake
you're my whole life babe
you make me feel so whole
so don't underestimate
what you do for a wounded soul
I looked everywhere for someone to save me
and finally
you are the one
the preacher speaks
God's words does he say
Faith has brought us to this day
they look in each others eyes
and only they can see
You are the one
that makes my heart beat
that completes me
never look down upon your soul
you are the one
that makes my hands shake
you're my whole life babe
you make me feel so whole
so don't underestimate
what you do for a wounded soul
I looked everywhere for someone to save me
and finally
you are the one
no one else was there for me
no one else stopped my heart form bleding
only you can make me feel this way
only you can find my true smile
among the hopeless and the broken
you are the one that saved me from it all
you are the one
that makes my heart beat
that completes me
never look down upon your soul
I looked everywhere
for someone to save me
and finally
you are the one
thank everything
In this beautiful world
That made for me
you were there for me
you are the one

Favorite Song: 'Only You' by the Platters
played at our wedding June 1958
still my favorite
Whether we wander wistful
whether we wander wise
we waltz wedding’s waltz; whenever
whatever weather
we’ll wriggle with wishful wives
Wind wispy willow
willy-nilly we’ll whirl
we’ll widdle we’ll weave; whenever
whatever weather
we'll waltz with wedding's wench
Well worthy we writers
who with words wrench

Our family got the news today
Our bubba's gettin' hitched
Young Daisy Mae, she's near fourteen
Got our boy bewitched
He's sayin' that he loves her
He's making her his bride
She's the first to get him this close
Though not too many tried
We've got to get things ready
Send invitations and make candles
We've got to get the good jars out
The one's that still have handles
The minister is on alert
We've got to make some shine
Grandpa says he'll make some up
But, it will not all be mine
Gonna have a wedding, a real old fashioned bash
With all sorts of kissin cousins drinkin from their secret stash
The food will be impressive, there'll be turkey, pig and cow
The family won't get bigger, since we're related anyhow
This time there'll be no shotgun
Like the last time for old Ben
This time the guns are empty
Not the way they were back then
The banjos will be tuned up
There'll be music in the air
The cops won't try to stop it
I think most will all be there
The ladies will be planning
Just how to serve up all the grub
While Bubba has to find a suit
And therein lies the rub
He's never worn a suit at all
Not even for a day
He's only dressed in coveralls
And that's how he's gonna stay
Gonna have a wedding, a real old fashioned bash
With all sorts of kissin cousins drinkin from their secret stash
The food will be impressive, there'll be turkey, pig and cow
The family won't get bigger, since we're related anyhow
It'll be a wang dang doodle
A hell of a good time
It'll only be completed
When they run out of the shine
there'll be singing and some dancing
Underneath the harvest moon
We can't wait for it to happen
It cannot come too soon
There'll be readings from the bible
Which the minister will read
And as good holy Christians
Everyone will heed
There's sure to be some fighting
Before the couple say "I do"
I mean, they are both cousins
I'm gonna go...aren't you?
Gonna have a wedding, a real old fashioned bash
With all sorts of kissin cousins drinkin from their secret stash
The food will be impressive, there'll be turkey, pig and cow
The family won't get bigger, since we're related anyhow
The bluest eyes I've ever seen
The pages of a magazine
I look at you in Holy White
Hollywood never gets it right
Since that eve I can't forget
The way I felt the day we met
The years go by, I wonder why
His Spirit called me from on High
It's been so long since that first song
I wonder where it all went wrong
Love waits for an eternity
Love is more than just a fantasy.
Form:
In my eyes, you’re the only one I see
In my mind, all day you’re holding onto me.
And most importantly…
In my heart you’re the one for me…
Ooh baby, you’re the one for me.
We wait for regal washing waves,
I stand on a boat in your arms
Barefoot on sand, exploring caves,
Though it rains you keep me warm.
We visit an island in a canoe,
Raindrops disturb the tender soul,
Under a willow together with you,
Trails never been seen, we stole,
In my eyes, you’re the only one I see
In my mind, all day you’re holding onto me.
And most importantly…
In my heart you’re the one for me…
Sweetheart, you’re the one for me.
When I wake up to your voice, or see you running through the grasses,
When we’re walking hand-in-hand, or together cutting classes,
When we laugh beneath the trees or count ladybugs in the stream,
When I watch you kick around the leaves, or I feel you when I dream,
In my eyes, you’re the only one I see
In my mind, all day you’re holding onto me.
And most importantly…
In my heart you’re the one for me…
My darling, you’re the one for me.
You entice with roses at no cause,
Rescue me in the early morn,
Together we aimlessly search for stars,
For you on this earth I’d be reborn.
In pale sheets soft and scented of you,
You know not how perfect I feel,
You tell me beautiful, you make it true,
I fear I dream, yet you are real;
In my eyes, you’re the only one I see
In my mind, all day you’re holding onto me.
And most importantly…
In my heart you’re the one for me…
Ooh my love; you’re the only one, for me.
the love
comes in a dream
and you twirl me around
spinning, spinning, spinning we dance
the song
Listen to your lover as he comes, gazing in your windows, peering
through the lattice, leaping across your mountains and bounding over your hills
like a gazelle or young stag in your garden orchard of pomegranates with choice
fruits, with henna and nard, saffron, calamus and cinnamon with every kind of
incense tree with myrrh and aloes, and all the finest spices streaming with wells
of flowing water that go down from Lebanon; I am drenched with dew as I cry out-
I call to you, arise my darling, my beautiful one and come with me. Let us roam
the countryside and go into the fields. Let us spend the night in the villages and
go early to the vineyards to see if the vines have budded, if their tender grapes do
appear, if the pomegranates are in bloom as the mandrakes send forth their
fragrance at our gates. There will I give you all manner of pleasant fruit, and
there I will give you more love until the day breaks and the shadows flee. You
have given me your vineyard, now all in my kingdom is yours. So come, come
away upon the spice-laden mountains and receive my love.
I will love you and give myself for you. I will love you as myself, even
as my own body, for he who loves his wife loves himself. So, I will nourish you; I
will clothe you; I will carefully protect you from danger, spot and wrinkle to present
you in glorious splendor. I will cherish you for you are my body, and I am your
head. Take care of me as your own. I give you honor with your reverence as we
both submit ourselves one to another in the fear of God, and many waters will not
quench our love, neither will the floods drown it, for its coals are the coals of fire,
as the vehement flame of God that none would dare try to put asunder what God
has joined together, and our threefold chord will not be broken. With Jesus, you
and me, we have security, help, warmth, and strength. So, let us give thanks
always for everything to our God and Father in the name of Jesus our Lord for His
Spirit, one another and this day and each day that we can come together and
rejoice and exhilirate each other with love and happiness. May our peace be
forever and ever in love.
