wedding song?

eversince we knew of irish and alvin's wedding plans, i've been subconsciously looking for songs that might paint a portrait of what their marriage means. subconsciously because i have never really went out to look for the songs. i just listen to songs or artists that i like and then when a particular line of the song strikes me, then that's the time i listen to the lyrics of the whole song intently. that was what happened when i heard kelly clarkson's "before your love". although kelly's second album, breakaway, was more successful in terms of sales and awards (yes, she got 2 grammy awards for this), i still like her first album. maybe because her first album was more mellow, more me. anyway, here's the lyrics to the song:
before your love
written by: gary burr/desmond child/cathy dennis

i wonder how i ever made it through the day
how did i settle for a world in shades of gray?
when you go in circles all the scenery looks the same
and you don’t know how
and i looked into your eyes
with the world stretched out in front of me and i realized

i never lived before your love
i never felt before your touch
i never needed anyone to make me feel alive
but then again, i wasn’t really living
i never lived before your love

i wanted more than just an ordinary life
all of my dreams seemed like castles in the sky
i stand before you when my heart was in your hands
and i don’t know how
i survived without your kiss
’cause you’ve given me a reason to exist

i never lived before your love
i never felt before your touch
i never needed anyone to make me feel alive
but then again, i wasn’t really living
i never lived
i never lived before your love
i never lived before your love

and i don’t know why
why the sun decides to shine
but you breathed your love into me just in time

i never lived before your love
i never felt before your touch
i never needed anyone to make me feel alive
but then again, i wasn’t really living
i never lived
i never lived before your love
