If you leap awake In the mirror of a bad dream And for a fraction of a second You can't remember where you are Just open your window And follow your memory upstream To the meadow in the mountain Where we counted every falling star
I believe a light that shines on you Will shine on you forever And though I cant guarantee There's nothing scary hiding under your bed I'm gonna stand guard like a postcard At the Golden Retriever And never leave till I leave you With a sweet dream in your bed
Chorus: I'm gonna watch you shine Gonna watch you grow Gonna paint a sign So you'll always know As long as one and one is two wooo There could never be a father who loved His daughter more than I love you
Trust your intuition It's just like goin fishin' You cast your line and hope you get a bite You don't need to waste your time Worryin' about the market place Trying to help the human race Strugglin to survive its harshest hour
what do you think for our dance??? I am trying to find a link for you to hear it...

Re: Father & Daughter, by Paul Simon
Absolutely gorgeous sentiments. I know the song but really hope you find the link so we can hear it again.
What a great song...I wanted to use it but it was just too fast...I think it's an strange song to dance to.
It's on The Wild Thornberry's Soundtrack if anyone is interested!

It's on the Wild Thornberry's soundtrack. I know it sounds kind of kiddie, but there are some pretty good songs on it.

Re: Father & Daughter, by Paul Simon
I was actually going to use it until I decided to take 'You Lite Up My Life' because I use to sing it to my dad when I was little.

Re: Father & Daughter, by Paul Simon
That's the one I was thinking of. My daughter said she would love to play that for her dance with her Dad, but they would have a hard time dancing it together. If you can do it, I think it's an excellent choice.

Re: Father & Daughter, by Paul Simon
I was going to use this song, since my Dad loves Paul Simon, but it is a litle fast for us to dance to.

Re: Father & Daughter, by Paul Simon
I never heard this song before (until someone at my baby shower made me a CD for me to play for my baby (and that song is on it) I love it and think it is perfect. Maybe someday my daughter will dance with my husband to it (since she hears it every night before she goes to sleep...
