And now it’s 17…

Anyway, we needed to pick a song for the first dance. Easy you say? Not so much. Stu and I have different musical tastes. We both offered up several suggestions, which well… didn’t go so far. It’s amazing how a lovely song has lyrics that suggest a less than happy (or PG-13 image). Anyway, we ended up settling on a song by Genesis. Go figure. I do think I’m a bit more happy about it than he his, but the lyrics are just wonderful.

Follow You Follow Me

Stay with me,
My love I hope you’ll always be
Right here by my side if ever I need you
Oh my love

In your arms,
I feel so safe and so secure
Everyday is such a perfect day to spend
Alone with you

 

I will follow you, will you follow me?
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you, will you stay with me?
Just one single tear in each passing year

 

 

With the dark,

Oh, I see so very clearly now

All my fears are drifting by me so slowly now

Fading away

 

 

I can say

The night is long, but you are here

Close at hand,

Oh I’m better for the smile you give

And while I live

 

 

I will follow you, will you follow me?

All the days and nights that wee know will be

I will stay with you, will you stay with me?

Just one single tear in each passing year there will be…

 Am I totally corny? Now… to dance :)
