I just wanted to share the text of a song I'm singing in Olivia's wedding. I sang a song at my junior recital, and Olivia told me that night that I had to promise to sing that song at her wedding, haha. Well, it looks like it's going to happen (and she asked me that even before she and Tyler were even engaged!). I like the song, because it's not cheesy like a lot of wedding songs. It's in French, but I think even the text in English is beautiful.
Let us love and sleep
Without a care for the rest of the world!
Neither ocean waves not mountain storms,
While we still love each other,
Can bow your golden head,
For love is more powerful
Than Gods and death!
The sun would extinguish its rays
To make your purity more pure,
The wind which inclines to earth the forest
Would not in passing dare
To frolic with your hair,
While you nestle
You head in my arms.
And when our two hearts
Shall ascend to paradise,
Where celestial lilies shall open beneath our tears,
Then, like flowers,
Let us join our loving lips
And strive to exhaust
Death in a kiss!
