Song for first dance at my wedding

[Knuckles]

I am getting married in October and we our having trouble picking out a song for our first dance. We have very different taste in modern music, so we are trying to find something a bit more classic that we can dance to. I really like the song Stand By Me, but she just thinks of dead people when she hears it because of the movie. She liked the song What a Wonderful World, but that just makes me think of Fallout 2 and a post apocalyptic world.

So I am looking for any suggestions that you have?

The Wedding Song by Bob Dylan

Not one of his more popular songs, but it's a beautiful love song.

I love you more than ever, more than time and more than love,
I love you more than money and more than the stars above,
Love you more than madness, more than waves upon the sea,
Love you more than life itself, you mean that much to me.

Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete,
I've said goodbye to haunted rooms and faces in the street,
To the courtyard of the jester which is hidden from the sun,
I love you more than ever and I haven't yet begun.

You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live,
When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give,
Dried the tears up from my dreams and pulled me from the hole,
Quenched my thirst and satisfied the burning in my soul.

You gave me babies one, two, three, what is more, you saved my life,
Eye for eye and tooth for tooth, your love cuts like a knife,
My thoughts of you don't ever rest, they'd kill me if I lie,
I'd sacrifice the world for you and watch my senses die.

The tune that is yours and mine to play upon this earth,
We'll play it out the best we know, whatever it is worth,
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood,
But happiness to me is you and I love you more than blood.

It's never been my duty to remake the world at large,
Nor is it my intention to sound a battle charge,
'Cause I love you more than all of that with a love that doesn't bend,
And if there is eternity I'd love you there again.

Oh, can't you see that you were born to stand by my side
And I was born to be with you, you were born to be my bride,
You're the other half of what I am, you're the missing piece
And I love you more than ever with that love that doesn't cease.

You turn the tide on me each day and teach my eyes to see,
Just bein' next to you is a natural thing for me
And I could never let you go, no matter what goes on,
'Cause I love you more than ever now that the past is gone.

But seriously... True Companion by Marc Cohn

My best friend just got married, and his first dance was a cheeky Sinatra-esque song called "Grow Old With Me." I forget the artist. It's from some fairly recent Broadway musical, and you can find it on iTunes. It worked really well for him, since he has a lot of that cheeky character in him, and he does a little swing dancing himself. Sounds like you're going for something a little more modern, though.
