Re: what song will you play for the father/daughter dance?

We are using 'My Little Girl'

From the moment I first held you
And rocked you to sleep
In my heart I knew
A child is never yours to keep
I knew one day you’d learn to fly
But I never dreamed what I’d feel inside

CHORUS

As I dance the last dance
With my little girl
And the first with the woman
Who’s found her place in the world
I see the woman in you
But for my whole life through
You’ll always be my little girl

You wrapped me ‘round your finger
Your smile made me melt
I wished so many times
I would’ve told you what I felt
From your first steps
to sweet sixteen
The rush of memories
feels like a dream

CHORUS

I see the woman in you
But for my whole life through
You’ll always be my little girl

I think it would be nice either way. Apart from a woman's voice singing, the lyrics could be sent from mother or father. Its such a beautiful song, there wasn't a dry eye in the house when we were done!

Re: what song will you play for the father/daughter dance?

I am not dancing with my dad but plan to dance with my little brother instead. I am using Monica ' For you I will'

When your feeling lost in the night,
When yo feel your world’ just ain’t right,
Call on me, I will be waiting
Count on me, I wll be here
Anytime the times get too tough,
Anytime your best ain’t enough
I’ll be the one to mak it beter,
I’ll be there to protect you,
See you through,
I’ll be there and there is nothing
I won’t do

Chorus:
I will cross the ocean for you
I will go and bring you the moon
I will be your hero your strengh
Anything you need
I will be the sun in your sky
I will light your way for all time
Promise you,
For you I ill

Verse 2:
I will shield yur heart from the rain
I will let no harm come your way
Oh these arms will be yur shelter
No these arms won’t let you down,
If there is a mountain to move
I will move that mountain for you
I’m here for you, I’m here forever
I will be your fortress, tall and strong
I’ll keep you safe,
I’ll stand beside you, right or wrong

Chorus:
I will cross the ocean for you
I will go and bring you the moon
I will be your hero your strength
Anything you need
I will be the sun in your sky
I will light your way for all time
Promise you,
For you I will

Verse 3:
For you I will, lay my life on the line
For you I will find your heart
For you I will die
With every breath, with all my soul
I’ll give my world, I’ll give it all
Put your faith in me (put your faith in me)
And I’ll have to leave it be

Chorus:
I will cross the ocean for you (I will cross the ocean)
I will go and bring you the moon
I will be your hero your strength (oh I will be your hero)
Anything you need (I will be)
I will be the sun in your sky
I will light your way for all times
Promise you (promise you)
For you I will

I will, I will, (I will)

I will cross the ocean for you
I will go and bring you the moon
I will wll be your hero your strength
Anything you need (let me be your hero)
I will be the sun in your sky (yeah baby)
I will light your way for all times
Promise you (I promise you)
For you I will (I will)

Promise you (promise you)
For you I will (whoa...)

I promise you
For you i, I will

Re: what song will you play for the father/daughter dance?

Either 'I am your child,' 'Butterfly Kisses,' 'You Raise Me Up' or Daddy's Little girl. I'm going to make him a CD and he can choose the song, I think it'll add more meaning during the dance that it's how he feels.
