Faith POV
I was having a glass of sangria and tuning my guitar when Missy came up to me.
"I just wanted to tell you again how amazing the song is and that were so grateful you're gonna Sing it for our first dance." She said with a smile.
"Thanks, I was scared y'all weren't gonna like it and it's an honor to get to do this for you two." I said hugging her.
"We love the song and can't wait to hear it live in a little bit" she said before walking away. I spent the next few minutes going over the lyrics in my head before the DJ motioned to me.
"Please welcome to the floor for their first dance as husband and wife, Byron and Missy!!" The DJ announced and waited for them to come through the door before continuing. "Now Byron and Missy have asked a friend of theirs to not just sing the song for their first dance but to write it as well, please welcome miss Faith Hill to the stage." He said, I gave a small wave to everyone before sitting on a stool and starting to play.

One look, dark room
Meant just for you
Time moved too fast
You play it back
Buttons on a coat
Lighthearted joke
No proof, not much
But you saw enough
Small talk, he drives
Coffee at midnight
The light reflects
The chain on your neck
He says, "Look up."
And your shoulders brush
No proof, one touch
But you felt enough

You can hear it in the silence, silence
You can feel it on the way home, way home
You could see it with the lights out, lights out
You are in love, true love
You are in love

Morning, his place
Burnt toast, Sunday
You keep his shirt
He keeps his word
And for once you let go
Of your fears and your ghosts
One step, not much
But it said enough
You kiss on sidewalks
You fight then you talk
One night he wakes
Strange look on his face
Pauses, then says.
"You're my best friend."
And you knew what it was
He is in love

You can hear it in the silence, silence
You can feel it on the way home, way home
You could see it with the lights out, lights out
You are in love, true love

And so it goes
You two are dancing in a snow globe 'round and 'round
And he keeps a picture of you in his office downtown
And you understand now why they lost their minds and fought the wars
And why I spent my whole life trying to put it into words

'Cause you can hear it in the silence
You can feel it on the way home
You could see it with the lights out
You are in love, true love
You're in love

You can hear it in the silence, silence
You can feel it on the way home, way home
You could see it with the lights out, lights out
You are in love, true love
You're in love

You can hear it in the silence, silence
You can feel it on the way home, way home
You can see it with the lights out, lights out
You are in love, true love
You're in love
I smiled at them as they finished dancing and could tell Missy was trying not to cry.

Tim POV
I nearly choked on my drink when the DJ announced Faith. I don't think I heard a single word she sang, I was too blown away by the purple dress she was wearing.
