Day 23: A Song that You Want Played at Your Wedding

I would like to preface this post, internet, by saying that I don’t even know if I want to have an actual wedding. My idea of a dream wedding would be me and Thing Two, Tahiti, and someone to marry us. I don’t really care about the long white dress thing (good song, though, check it out). Or the overpriced caterer. Or the D.J. that plays the worst music known to man. What I care about is not the wedding. It is the marriage.

Now that I have gotten all that out, don’t think that means that I haven’t thought about songs! I mean, HELLO, internet! I am a woman and I am sentimental and, duh, I am obsessed with all things musical. So, NATURALLY, I have picked a song for me and Thing Two and it goes a little something like this…

“You Are the Best Thing” – Ray Lamontagne

Baby, it's been a long day, baby
Things ain't going my way
You know I need you here
Here by my side
All of the time

And baby, the way you move me it's crazy
It's like you see right through me
And you make it easier
You please me and you don't even have to try

Oh because, you are the best thing
You are the best thing
You are the best thing
Ever happened to me

Baby, we've come a long way, baby
You know, I hope and I pray that you believe me
When I say this love will never fade away

Oh because, you are the best thing
You are the best thing
You are the best thing
Ever happened to me

Now both of us have known love before
To come on up promising, like the spring, just walk on out the door
Our hearts are strong and are hearts are kind
Well, let me tell you what exactly is on my mind

You are the best thing
You are the best thing
You are the best thing
Ever happened to me

You are the best thing
You are the best thing
You are the best thing
Ever happened to me

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Now, now, now, now
