Song Lyrics for a wedding reading (1 Viewer)

[BobbyLayne]

The wedding was this past Saturday and I ended up going with Queen, My Best Friend. It worked well into the overall vibe of the ceremony. Everything went well despite a few jitters. I received tons of compliments on the ceremony and the reading in particular.

Thanks to @Mister CIAfor the suggestion!

Believe he’s starting a side gig as a wedding planner

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove
Dance me to the end of love.

 

[Dr. Octopus]

Queen

Are you gonna take me home tonight?
Aah, down beside that red fire light
Are you gonna let it all hang out?
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rocking world go 'round

 

[Zow]

Well, we're living here in Allentown
And they're closing all the factories down
Out in Bethlehem, they're killing time
Filling out forms, standing in line

Well, our fathers fought the Second World War
Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore
Met our mothers at the USO
Asked them to dance, danced with them slow

And we're living here in Allentown
But the restlessness was handed down
And it's getting very hard to stay

I grew up in Allentown. It’s not romantic.

I just officiated my third wedding two weeks ago and used Belinda Carlisle, Heaven is a Place on Earth as the reading. This one was for the daughter of some friends of mine and my first lesbian wedding. All went well and they were thrilled with the choice.
