Do you and your significant other have song that is "yours"? My partner of 34+ years and I consider "Hymne à l'amour" (music: Marguerite Monnot; original French lyrics: Edith Piaf) "ours". The English translation of the title is "Hymn to Love", but sometimes listed as "If You Love Me, (Really Love Me)" with English lyrics by Geoffrey Parsons.

"Stand By Me" by Ben E. King came on one afternoon when I was with my very best friends, including my future (though I did not know at that time) husband. We raised our drinks, interlocking wrists, as we swayed together in a circle to the beat of the song. It was a golden moment of cameraderie.
The lyrics work for dear friends as well as they later fit how we related to each other in marriage. The first dance at our wedding reception was to this song. The bridge, with swelling strings, accompanied the most magical dance of my life.
Listening just now STILL makes me cry, over thirty years later.

Oh...to have such a classic, classy song as "yours". My husband and I, although we have known each other since we were children, only reconnected 10 years ago - when he was living in Los Angeles, and I was in Indianapolis. Our song was "Need You Now" by Lady Antebellum...and I'm not a country music fan. However - the lyrics, "It's a quarter after one, and I'm all alone and I need you now," were so relevant. Luckily, we now reside together in the same state.
