When I first sat down three years ago to write my first wedding song for my son’s wedding I had no idea that my career would take off like it did.
My youngest son was married in June 2006. I just started writing music and thought I could write our mother/ son wedding song for the two of us to dance to. I sat down to write the lyrics and they flowed flawlessly. The emotion and love I felt for him brought the lyrics effortlessly. I wanted to focus on his wedding day with his new bride and their future together. When we danced to it on his wedding night I couldn’t hold my tears back, the lyrics said it all. How I felt about him as a man and how much I loved him. When our guests heard the song, there was not a dry eye in the house, young or old, male or female. I was proud of that moment with my son and the man he had become.
About a year later I released a father/daughter wedding song titled, I’ll Always Be Your Daughter. The CD’s are selling very well for both songs.
In May 2009, I released my new song, A First Dance Wedding Song (Two Little Words). The response has been overwhelming. I focused on what the bride wanted to say to her groom and what the groom wanted to say to his bride. The lyrics express what their feelings are for each other and how they found their perfect sole mates.
Here are the lyrics
A First Dance Wedding Song (Two Little Words)
BRIDE VERSE 1: You are the man, to keep me warm at night
Baby, hold me tight
You are the man, who loves me as I am
You’re my best friend
As my love for you grew
There was no one else for me but you
BRIDE CHORUS: When I said those two little words,
I meant them from my heart As I looked in your eyes,
I knew it was the start
Of a lifetime, with deep passion and truth, two little words from me to you
Two little words, for two people in love I do
GROOM VERSE 2: You are the woman, to share my life It feels so right
You are the woman I care for & love That I dream of
Now I understand That loving you makes me a better man
GROOM CHORUS: When I said those two little words, I meant them from my heart
As I looked in your eyes, I knew it was the start
Of a bond blessed from above, two separate lives, united as one
Two little words for two people in love I do
BRIDGE: As we dance tonight/we celebrate - (sung by bride)
A true love that comes/once in a life - (sung by groom)
Two little words we/promised today - (sung by bride)
Starts our journey as/husband & wife - (sung by both)
(Bride) Two little words for (Groom) two people in love I do
Two little words, that say I love you, I do
Congratulations to all the brides, grooms, their family and friends on a very special day.
