Looking for an emotional wedding reading? The lyrics to Jim Croce’s Time in a Bottle work perfectly for a wedding ceremony…

“If I could save time in a bottle,
the first thing that I’d like to do,
is to save every day ’till eternity passes away,
just to spend them with you.

If I could make days last forever;
if words could make wishes come true;
I’d save every day like a treasure and then, again,
I would spend them with you.

If I had a box just for wishes,
and dreams that had never come true;
the box would be empty,
except for the memory of how they were answered by you.”
