Pin There, Done That: First Dance Lyrics

Have you all seen this picture floating around Pinterest?


Cute, right?  You simply write the lyrics to the song you first danced to as a married couple on the matte inside the frame.  Easy.


Here's my version ... 





Our song was "If Not For You" which is originally Bob Dylan, but we danced to the Derek Webb & Sandra McCracken version.  If you've heard Bob Dylan sing, there's no explanation necessary.  We've since seen Derek & Sandra in concert at Eddie's Attic in Decatur, GA.  We're fans of theirs.  I'm pretty sure they'd be fans of ours if we all knew each other.

Here are the lyrics:

If not for you, babe, I couldn't find the door
Couldn't even see the floor
I'd be sad and blue if not for you.

If not for you, baby, I'd lay awake all night
Wait for the morning light
To shine in through
But it will not be new if not for you.

If not for you, my sky would fall, rain would gather too
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all
I'd be lost if not for you
And you know it's true.

If not for you, my sky would fall, rain would gather too
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all
Oh what would I do if not for you?

If not for you, winter would have no spring
I couldn't hear the robins sing
I just wouldn't have a clue
Anyway it wouldn't ring true if not for you
If not for you, if not for you.



So, what song did you first dance to at your wedding or what song would you like to dance to?  Here's to hoping we all keep dancing through the years...cheers!
