- This is a list of songs that celebrate finding love again.
The songs might talk about being hurt, being cautious and now you've found the love of your life.
- There's also a list of successful celebrity second marriages.
If you're getting married for the second time, there may be added stress. You could be concerned about what you should do differently from the first time you got married.
Maybe you're a widow or a widower. Maybe this is your third or another trip down the aisle. I've heard suggestions and found lists of songs for second weddings but often they include songs that could be for any wedding.
The songs here could be peppered in with other music, you might want one for your First Dance together. Your 2nd wedding is yours alone, so have it as you wish.
I'm going to give slightly different lists of songs for remarriages to a former spouse or to an old flame, but the songs here are still good for any remarriage. In our experience and with our friends, we've thought out so many situations. The list isn't in any particular order.

Jeff Carson - Scars And All (2000) Real Life (audio cd/MP3)
Excerpt:
I was living hard and fast
Running from my past
 |
| George Burns had been married before (for 26 days) Then he & Gracie Allen were married nearly 40 years 
|
Life had taken it's toll
I was staggered by the blows
I'd been through all I could go through
Chorus:
There was scars on my heart
Where love had left it's mark
Wounds that I still carried from the fall
Oh but your love built a bridge
Where I'd put up a wall
And you loved me scars and all ....
Making Memories of Us - Keith Urban
Number one in 2005; From CD Be Here 2004
(audio cd/MP3)
Excerpt:
I wanna honor your mother
I wanna learn from your pa
I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw
I wanna stand out in a crowd for you
A man among men
I wanna make your world better than it's ever been
And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us
We'll follow the rainbow
Wherever the four winds blow
And there'll be a new day
Comin' your way
I'm gonna be here for you from now on
This you know somehow
You've been stretched to the limits but it's alright now
And I'm gonna make you a promise
If there's life after this
I'm gonna be there to meet you with a warm, wet kiss....

I'd Love To Be Your Last - Gretchen Wilson
2011 single from CD I Got Your Country Right Here
(audio cd/MP3)Excerpt:
If I had it my way, this would be the first time
That I made love
And I would be the first girl that your hands touched
But we've both done our share of livin'
Taking chances we've been given
I've never been too big on looking back
I don't care if I'm your first love,
But I'd love to be your last
If I could do it over I'd have waited for this moment
So I could give my heart to you unbroken
But if our mistakes brought us together
Does it really matter whether
We were saints or sinners in the past?
I don't care if I'm your first love,
But I'd love to be your last ....

Sun Comes Up - John Legend Live at SOB's
Excerpt:
I know you think I'm like the other man
You let him in and he breaks your heart again
But this things more than physical
I'll free your mind and I'll bless your soul
Tonight we're gonna loose track of time
Body and spirit will intertwine and we'll stay here
The rest of the night and
Baby when the sun comes up, I'm gonna be holding you
It's destiny that your next to me, I'm in love with you
Oh and baby when I wake up, I'm gonna be there with you
A new day rise I wanna look in your eyes when the sun comes up ....
