Oh I don’t know how the years will go down, it’s alright
Let’s make the most of every moment tonight

Loving Lyrics:
I was sent here for you
We were made to love

Out of all of the girls
You’re my one and only girl
Ain’t nobody in the world tonight

Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Tonight (Best You Ever Had) feat. Ludacris
Released in 2012 on the album Think Like a Man
This smooth and sexy R&B song will get you in just the right mood for your impending honeymoon.

Loving Lyrics:
Come on, let me kiss that
Oh, I know you miss that
What’s wrong, let me fix that
I Love, You Love

Hearts break so easy
I know, believe me
Oh, I’ve tried
But my arms can hold you
My kiss console you
I’ll come and love you tonight
Each Day Gets Better
Released in 2006 on the album Once Again
This sugar-sweet track is the musical equivalent of chocolate. It’s nice and smooth; it will lift your energy and boost your mood; it flows like melted cocoa and tastes even better going down. It’s exactly what you need to “hit the spot” in terms of romantic wedding songs.
Loving Lyrics:
I just can’t let her go
Oh no
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can’t leave her, no
P.D.A. (We Just Don’t Care)
Released in 2006 on the album Once Again
With a boppy beat and trilling piano chorus, P.D.A. (We Just Don’t Care) is four minutes of good old-fashioned fun. It’s the kind of song that will make you laugh as you dance in your partner’s arms until you’re dizzy, breathless, and totally unconcerned with what other people think.
Loving Lyrics:
I’m not ashamed, I don’t care who sees
Us hugging and kissing, our love exhibition
Save Room
Released in 2006 on the album Once Again
Offering a fun, agile rhythm that would suit everything from a bouncing two-step to a smooth line dance, Save Room is sure to get people on their feet during your wedding reception. What else would you expect from a track co-produced by John Legend and will.i.am.
Loving Lyrics:
Save room for my love
Save room for a moment to be with me
So High
Released in 2004 on the album Get Lifted
With smooth vocals and a relaxed, slow-jam vibe, So High is a great “breather” song between faster tracks. It will let you take a moment and revolve around the dance floor with your partner in a quiet, intimate waltz.
Loving Lyrics:
Let’s go to a place only lovers go
To a spot that we’ve never known
To the top of the clouds we’re floating away
