You want to give your true love the best gift ever? But you want something different, something truly special, right?

When was the last time you heard that special song that reminded you of that first kiss or your first love? Giving someone a CD of his or her favorite romantic music is one way to go. Music engages the emotions like no other stimulus, which is why it’s so necessary for setting a romantic mood.

What’s better than giving a CD of beautiful love songs to the one you love? Here’s the answer. What if you found out that Lionel Richie, the legendary songwriter, was a distant cousin of yours? So he invites you over to his mansion to hang out. While there, you throw out the idea of writing a love song with him that you would like to dedicate to your loved one.

He says, “What are we waiting for? Lets do it!”

And so the song begins with, “We began as a simple melody, through joy and through pain we’ve grown into an endless symphony…” All of a sudden, you feel like you’re in another world, as a colorful vision hits you. You’re realizing that this person you love is the one you want to spend your whole life with.

And the beautiful lines continue, “Today has come for me to take your hand and say, ‘With this ring I thee wed’…”

An hour later, the song is complete with 2 verses and a chorus flowered with the most beautiful lyrics you had ever created (with the help of Lionel Richie, of course) and a tear-jerkingly mesmerizing melody that moves your soul.

Ok, let’s wake up now. Back to reality. But was this just a dream? Well, it doesn’t have to be.

Your very own love song can seriously last until the end of time. Definitely one of the greatest gifts you can give to the one you love.
