    Baby all I wanna do is stick around...

    *and*

    are you woman enough to be my man?

    on a similar note, looking for a PJ song for our first dance at our wedding - am leaning towards 'throw your arms around me.'
    would love other suggestions though! thanks!

    nothing says 'i love you' more than: "i never sucked satan's dick."

    Not sure if women like cursing in wedding vowels. Or ministers for that matter ;)
    Well, do you need a lot of what you've got to survive?

    Light Years

    'cause sooner or later, someone's gonna lose someone ... sigh.

    I would paraphrase to "I was but a stone, your light makes me a star."

    but uh, yeah, what he said, MAN UP AND WRITE SOMETHING FROM THE HEART!

    this is what i recently wrote for a friend of mine's birthday.

    All five horizons revolve
    around your soul,
    as the earth to the sun

    And if you forget all,
    just remember you are everything
    and everything is you,
    Just be darling and we
    will all be faithful to you

    Don’t it just make you smile?
    Don’t you know you make us smile?

    I got married 3 years ago and thought about using song lyrics. But then I decided against it. I wanted to use my own words, because no one else can describe how I feel about my wife as well as I can.

    Also, to the person who suggested using "Better Man" - that song is not a flattering picture of the man. Not a love song.

    And, to the person who suggested using "Throw Your Arms Around Me" - that song is about one night stands. For example - "And we may never meet again, So shed your skin lets get started." Probably not the best song for wedding vows.

    I actually do not think of Throw Your Arms Around Me as a one night stand song....maybe a first love song though.

    When I walk beside her
    I am the better man
    when i look to leave her
    I always stagger back again

    Once I built an ivory tower
    so I could worship from above
    when I climb down to be set free
    she took me in again
    well you know the pendulum throws
    farther out to the one side, swinging
    has to sweep back the other way

    hehehehe....

    i can see me telling my girlfriend that i wanted to use pearl jam lyrics in my wedding vows....

    hahahahahahahahahahaha...................

    she would spend the next 20 minutes beating the fuck out of me with a baseball bat....

    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    i'd rather be with an animal....

    no wait

    Don't even think about reaching me. I won't be home.
    Don't even think about stopping by. Don't think of me at all.

    NO....


    Let's pick up your will,... it's grown fat and lazy
    I'm sympathetic as well,... don't go on me now

    And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfish and clear

    nah

    If nothing is everything
    If nothing is everything, I'll have it all
    If nothing is everything
    If nothing is everything, I'll have it all

    heh,nope

    oh well. sorry!

    A song called "Faithful" is a good place to start for this kind of thing...

    "Just be darling and I will be too
    Faithful to you"

    what a different life had I not found this love with you.

    genius!!
  • muppetmuppet Posts: 980
    You don't need to use the exact lyrics - for example:

    "I gather speed from you fucking me."

    Could work.

    My wife and I had our first dance at the wedding to "Thin Air" which really confused the grandparents but our friends loved it. It’s a beautiful song that Stone wrote, and as a wedding gift my sister bought us one of those "Star Registries" and named it "Thin Air." If anyone knows Stone, tell him there's a legit star in the heavens named after a song he wrote. I've got the coordinates if any one ever wants to pretend that they know how to find it.

    Some good lines for the vows:

    There's a light when my babies in my arms

    It's not in my past to presume.
    Love can keep on moving in both directions.
    How to be happy and true is the quest we're taking on together.

    "Hello, Dad?"

    "I think I just married a douchebag..."
    "WE'RE UH, WE'RE GONNA DO THIS ONE WHICH IS UH, CERTAINLY NOT A USUAL ONE, AND THEN UH, JUST TAKE A FEW MORE MINUTES, THEN UH, AND THEN WE'RE GONNA DO OUR BEST TO KEEP TOM PETTY AND THE HEARTBREAKERS AWAKE FR..." (cheering at intro)...

    I'm glad there's already plenty of people discouraging this terrible idea. We all love PJ, but don't taint your wedding with your fandom. If there was something that spoke to you enough about how you felt about your wife you would already know it and wouldn't have to ask. Trying to squeeze some PJ into a sacred event is lame.

    I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come off so critical or sound mean. I'm sure youre not lame. The reception is a good place to work in some PJ songs!
