It was so, so, so hard to decide on a first song! It had to be an actual good song, one that we both genuinely liked outside of the "first dance" criteria -- so many "first dance" songs are just awful! The song also had to be one that we could dance to, factoring in that neither of us can really dance!
I do love what we ended up choosing, even if it happens to be fairly popular*: Al Green's "Let's Stay Together." I looked at the lyrics right now, and my eyes teared up for a sec remembering the day. Aw. :)
I, I'm so in love with you Whatever you want to do Is all right with me 'Cause you make me feel so brand new And I want to spend my life with you
Since, since we've been together Loving you forever Is what I need Let me be the one you come running to I'll never be untrue
Let's, let's stay together Lovin' you whether, whether Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Why, why some people break up Then turn around and make up I just can't see You'd never do that to me (would you, baby) Staying around you is all I see (Here's what I want us to do)
Let's, we oughta stay together Loving you whether, whether Times are good or bad, happy or sad

I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is all right with me
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you
Since, since we've been together
Loving you forever
Is what I need
Let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue
Let's, let's stay together
Lovin' you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Why, why some people break up
Then turn around and make up
I just can't see
You'd never do that to me (would you, baby)
Staying around you is all I see
(Here's what I want us to do)
Let's, we oughta stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
