\"wedding<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Poetry has a powerful way of capturing our attention and describing emotional moments in the most touching way. It\u2019s no wonder wedding poems remain a popular choice for speeches, vows, and toasts. The right wedding words<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0can inspire tears of joy and have everyone feeling the love. But how do you choose the perfect love poem for the big day? We\u2019re glad you asked.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

<\/p>\r\n\r\n

How to Find the Perfect Wedding Poem<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Whether you\u2019re the person getting married or someone the newlyweds have asked to share a few words, there are a few things to consider before you choose a wedding poem. Keep in mind that wedding poems are a great idea for wedding vows, wedding readings, toasts, cards, and digital invitations<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Think About the Tone<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Some wedding poems are traditional and formal in nature, while others are much more modern and unusual. Look for a poem that matches the tone of the event and the moment when you\u2019re actually sharing the poem. Consider whether you want a traditional sonnet as part of the wedding ceremony or a few quirky lines for a toast to the happy couple on their special day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Consider the Couple\u2019s Favorite Figures<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If you\u2019re choosing a wedding poem as part of a speech or toast, ask the happy couple if there are any particular poets or writers they love. You can then choose a poet<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0they relate to or admire as a special way to honor their own personal connection.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Practice Saying It Aloud<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To avoid stumbling over your words on the big day, choose a poem that you feel confident saying out loud. Reciting the poem aloud is also a good way to see if it\u2019ll fit within the moment \u2014 you might find it\u2019s too long and complicated for your vows, or it\u2019s too short for your wedding ceremony reading. You might also discover that a traditional poem doesn\u2019t suit you and opt for something more contemporary or casual instead.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Personalize It<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Once you\u2019ve found the perfect poem, don\u2019t be afraid to experiment with it a little. Add a few personalized lines to the start or end of the poem, or ground it by telling a story about the two soulmates beforehand. This works great as part of a ceremony<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0speech or a wedding day toast, where you can lead the audience on a journey.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We love these traditional wedding poems that are truly timeless. These classics are favorites among couples and speech givers alike for their romance, depth, and familiarity. These traditional poems work great for a more formal ceremony or toast, and would also look wonderful printed and displayed at the reception venue as decor.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

1. I Carry Your Heart by E. E. Cummings<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

my heart) i am never without it (anywhere<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

by only me is your doing, my darling)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

i fear<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and it\u2019s you are whatever a moon has always meant<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and whatever a sun will always sing is you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

here is the deepest secret nobody knows<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and this is the wonder that\u2019s keeping the stars apart<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

2. How Do I Love Thee? by Elizabeth Barrett Browning<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love thee to the level of every day’s<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love with a passion put to use<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I shall but love thee better after death.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

3. Sonnet XVII by Pablo Neruda<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

in secret, between the shadow and the soul.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love you as the plant that never blooms<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

so I love you because I know no other way<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

4. This Marriage by Rumi<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

May these vows and this marriage be blessed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

May it be sweet milk,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

this marriage, like wine and halvah.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

May this marriage offer fruit and shade<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like the date palm.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

May this marriage be full of laughter,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

our every day a day in paradise.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

May this marriage be a sign of compassion,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

a seal of happiness here and hereafter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

May this marriage have a fair face and a good name,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

an omen as welcomes the moon in a clear blue sky.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I am out of words to describe<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

how spirit mingles in this marriage.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

5. Touched by An Angel by Maya Angelou<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We, unaccustomed to courage<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

exiles from delight<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

live coiled in shells of loneliness<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

until love leaves its high holy temple<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and comes into our sight<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

to liberate us into life.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Love arrives<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and in its train come ecstasies<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

old memories of pleasure<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

ancient histories of pain.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yet if we are bold,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

love strikes away the chains of fear<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

from our souls.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We are weaned from our timidity<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In the flush of love’s light<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

we dare be brave<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And suddenly we see<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

that love costs all we are<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and will ever be.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yet it is only love<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

which sets us free.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

6. Love Is A Place by E. E. Cummings<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

love is a place<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

& through this place of<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

love move<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

(with brightness of peace)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

all places<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

yes is a world<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

& in this world of<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

yes live<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

(skilfully curled)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

all worlds<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

7. Sonnet 116 by William Shakespeare<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Let me not to the marriage of true minds<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Admit impediments. Love is not love<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Which alters when it alteration finds,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Or bends with the remover to remove.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

O no! it is an ever-fixed mark<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It is the star to every wand’ring bark,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Within his bending sickle’s compass come;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If this be error and upon me prov’d,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I never writ, nor no man ever lov’d.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

8. To Be One With Each Other by George Eliot<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What greater thing is there for two human souls<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

than to feel that they are joined together to strengthen<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

each other in all labor, to minister to each other in all sorrow,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

to share with each other in all gladness,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

to be one with each other in the<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

silent unspoken memories?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

9. To Love Is Not to Possess by James Kavanaugh<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To love is not to possess,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To own or imprison,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Nor to lose one’s self in another.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Love is to join and separate,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To walk alone and together,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To find a laughing freedom<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

That lonely isolation does not permit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It is finally to be able<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To be who we really are<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

No longer clinging in childish dependency<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Nor docilely living separate lives in silence,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It is to be perfectly one’s self<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And perfectly joined in permanent commitment<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To another–and to one’s inner self.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Love only endures when it moves like waves,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Receding and returning gently or passionately,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Or moving lovingly like the tide<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In the moon’s own predictable harmony,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Because finally, despite a child’s scars<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Or an adult’s deepest wounds,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

They are openly free to be<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Who they really are–and always secretly were,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In the very core of their being<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Where true and lasting love can alone abide.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

10 Beautifully Unusual Wedding Poems<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Design: Claudia Owen<\/p><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Fancy something a little more unusual for your speech, toast, greeting, or vows? These quirky, offbeat, and more contemporary wedding poems could be perfect for you. With modern poems often being shorter than their traditional counterparts, these are ideal for contemporary ceremonies and elopements<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

1. Excerpt from First Poems by Rainer Maria Rilke<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Understand, I’ll slip quietly away from the noisy crowd<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

when I see the pale stars rising, blooming, over the oaks.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I’ll pursue solitary pathways through the pale twilit meadows<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

with only this one dream: You come too.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

2. Roads Go Ever Ever On by J. R. R. Tolkien<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Roads go ever ever on,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Over rock and under tree,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By caves where never sun has shone,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By streams that never find the sea;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Over snow by winter sown,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And through the merry flowers of June,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Over grass and over stone,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And under mountains in the moon.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Roads go ever ever on<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Under cloud and under star,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yet feet that wandering have gone<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Turn at last to home afar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Eyes that fire and sword have seen<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And horror in the halls of stone<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Look at last on meadows green<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And trees and hills they long have known.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

3. Excerpt from Captain Corelli\u2019s Mandolin by Louis de Berni\u00e8res<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Love is a temporary madness.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It erupts like volcanoes and then subsides.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And when it subsides, you have to make a decision.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

that it is inconceivable that you should ever part.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Because this is what love is.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Love is not breathlessness,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It is not excitement,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It is not the promulgation of eternal passion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

That is just being \u201cin love\u201d which any fool can do.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And this is both an art and a fortunate accident.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Those that truly love, have roots that grow towards each other underground,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And when all the pretty blossom have fallen from their branches,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

They find that they are one tree and not two.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

4. Chemistry by Nayyirah Waheed<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

chemistry<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

it<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

setting fire to my mind.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

5. You Came, Too by Nikki Giovanni<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I came to the crowd seeking friends<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I came to the crowd seeking love<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I came to the crowd for understanding<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I found you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I came to the crowd to weep<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I came to the crowd to laugh<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You dried my tears<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You shared my happiness<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I went from the crowd seeking you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I went from the crowd seeking me<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I went from the crowd forever<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You came, too<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

6. Dress by Tyler Knott Gregson <\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I would rather be<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

the loneliest dress<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

hanging in the back<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

most worn<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and most gorgeous dress<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

in the front<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

of anyone<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

7. Untitled by R. M. Drake<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You will be the clouds<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And I will be the sky.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You will be the ocean<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And I will be the shore.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You will be the trees<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And I will be the wind.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Whatever we are, you and I<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Will always collide.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

8. Our Souls Are Mirrors by Rupi Kaur<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

god must have kneaded you and i<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

from the same dough<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

rolled us out as one on the baking sheet<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

must have suddenly realized<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

how unfair it was<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

to put that much magic in one person<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and sadly split that dough in two<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

how else is it that<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

when i look in the mirror<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

i am looking at you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

when you breathe<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

my own lungs fill with air<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

that we just met but we<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

have known each other our whole lives<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

if we were not made as one to begin with<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

9. The Day Sky by Hafiz<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Let us be like<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

two falling stars in the day sky.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Let no one know of our sublime beauty<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

as we hold hands with God<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and burn<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Into a sacred existence that defies \u2013<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

that surpasses<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Every description of ecstasy<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and love.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

10. Falling Stars by Rainer Maria Rilke<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Do you remember still the falling stars<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

that like swift horses through the heavens raced<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and suddenly leaped across the hurdles<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

of our wishes–do you recall? And we<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

did make so many!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For there were countless numbers<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

of stars: each time we looked above we were<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

astounded by the swiftness of their daring play,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

while in our hearts we felt safe and secure<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

watching these brilliant bodies disintegrate,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

knowing somehow we had survived their fall.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Want to make your loved ones laugh instead of cry? Here are some of our favorite funny wedding poems that are sure to get people smiling. (There\u2019s even a \u201cpoem\u201d from a hilarious romantic comedy.)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

1. To My Valentine by Ogden Nash<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

More than a catbird hates a cat,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Or a criminal hates a clue,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Or the Axis hates the United States,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

That\u2019s how much I love you.

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love you more than a duck can swim,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And more than a grapefruit squirts,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love you more than a gin rummy is a bore,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And more than a toothache hurts.

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As a shipwrecked sailor hates the sea,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Or a juggler hates a shove,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As a hostess detests unexpected guests,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

That\u2019s how much you I love.

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love you more than a wasp can sting,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And more than the subway jerks,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I love you as much as a beggar needs a crutch,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And more than a hangnail irks.

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I swear to you by the stars above,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And below, if such there be,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As the High Court loathes perjurious oaths,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

That\u2019s how you\u2019re loved by me.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

2. I\u2019ll Be There For You by Louise Cuddon<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I\u2019ll be there my darling, through thick and through thin<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When your mind\u2019s in a mess and your head\u2019s in a spin<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When your plane\u2019s been delayed, and you\u2019ve missed the last train

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When life is just threatening to drive you insane<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When your thrilling whodunit has lost its last page<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When somebody tells you, you\u2019re looking your age<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When your coffee\u2019s too cool, and your wine is too warm<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When the forecast said \u201cFine\u201d, but you\u2019re out in a storm<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When your quick break hotel, turns into a slum<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And your holiday photos show only your thumb

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When you park for five minutes in a resident\u2019s bay<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And return to discover you\u2019ve been towed away<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When the jeans that you bought in hope or in haste<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Just stick on your hips and don\u2019t reach round your waist<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When the food you most like brings you out in red rashes<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When as soon as you boot up the bloody thing crashes

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So my darling, my sweetheart, my dear\u2026<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When you break a rule, when you act the fool<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When you\u2019ve got the flu, when you\u2019re in a stew<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When you\u2019re last in the queue, don\u2019t feel blue<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u2019cause I\u2019m telling you, I\u2019ll be there.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

3. Grow Old With You from The Wedding Singer<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I wanna make you smile whenever you\u2019re sad<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Carry you around when your arthritis is bad<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

All I wanna do is grow old with you

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I\u2019ll get your medicine when your tummy aches<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Build you a fire if the furnace breaks<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Oh, it could be so nice, growing old with you

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I\u2019ll miss you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Kiss you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Give you my coat when you are cold

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Need you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Feed you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Even let you hold the remote control

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Put you to bed when you\u2019ve had too much to drink<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Oh, I could be the man who grows old with you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I wanna grow old with you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

4. I Rely On You by Hovis Presley<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I rely on you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like a camera needs a shutter<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like a gambler needs a flutter<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like a golfer needs a putter<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like a buttered scone involves some butter

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I rely on you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like an acrobat needs ice cool nerve<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like a hairpin needs a drastic curve<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like an HGV needs endless derv<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like an outside left needs a body swerve

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I rely on you<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like a handyman needs pliers<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like an auctioneer needs buyers<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like a laundromat needs driers<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

like The Good Life needed Richard Briers

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I rely on you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

5. Yes, I\u2019ll Marry You by Pam Ayres<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yes, I’ll marry you, my dear,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And here’s the reason why;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So I can push you out of bed<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When the baby starts to cry,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And if we hear a knocking<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And it’s creepy and it’s late,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I hand you the torch you see,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And you investigate.

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yes I’ll marry you, my dear,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You may not apprehend it,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

But when the tumble-drier goes<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It’s you that has to mend it,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You have to face the neighbour<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Should our labrador attack him,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And if a drunkard fondles me<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It’s you that has to whack him.

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yes, I’ll marry you,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You’re virile and you’re lean,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

My house is like a pigsty<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You can help to keep it clean.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

That sexy little dinner<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Which you served by candlelight,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As I do chipolatas,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You can cook it every night!

<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It’s you who has to work the drill<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and put up curtain track,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And when I’ve got PMT it’s you who gets the flak,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I do see great advantages,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

But none of them for you,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And so before you see the light,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I do, I do, I do!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
