    ahhh, nice choice. :)

    our wedding song was/is: you're the best thing - the style council :cool:
    still gives me chills.
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow


  • although the words may not bring thoughts of weddings bells, but Van Morrison's "A Whiter Shade of Pale" is a beautiful song. And if you're into something a little more upbeat Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" :)
