AJ walked over to them and said it was time for his surprise. Destiny looked at him like, What is going on here? AJ led her over to a seat near the tables closest to the dance floor than walked up to where the microphone was.
“I heard this song while I was on my way to the church this morning,” AJ said. “It’s a love song that conveys every ounce of feeling I have for my wife, Destiny. It sounds like an old 80s love song, but it’s not, it was actually released in the mid-90s. And, luckily, the band knows how to play it. Baby, this song is for you.”
The music started and Destiny also recognized this song immediately, too. To her, it described the exact kind of feelings she wanted somebody to feel about her. Just when she thought her tear fest was over, it right up again as AJ sang the first words:
I live my life for you
I wanna be by your side
In everything that you do
And if there’s only one thing you can believe is true
I live my life for you
I dedicate my life to you
You know that I would die for you
But our love would last forever
And I will always be with you
And there is nothing we can’t do
As long as we’re together
I just can’t live without you
And I want you to know
I need you like I’ve never needed
Anyone before
I live me life for you
I wanna be by your side
In everything that you do
And if there’s only one thing you can believe is true
I live my life for you
**Guitar break**
Oh, I build my world around you
And I want you to know
I need you like I’ve never needed
Anyone before
I live my life for you
I wanna be by your side
In everything that you do
And if there’s only one thing you can believe is true
I live my life for you
Whoa, yeah
I live my life
For you
At the end of the song, AJ was kneeling in front of a now-crying Destiny. She wrapped her arms around him before the music even ended. The audience applauded so loudly AJ could barely hear Destiny tell him she loved him. The lead singer for the band walked over to them and took the microphone from AJ.
