Re: Father-Daughter Songs

You can go with the ever-popular Daddy's little girl. My mom would like me to chose this as my song, but I am still unsure. I have to see what other possibilities I'd like my band to play.

Re: Father-Daughter Songs

'Dance with my father' is about a father who's dead'. It's about letting his mom dance w/ her husband just one more time and all about his growing up how he'd run to his dad when his mom said no about things. I thought that was a great song too until I listened to the lyrics.

Re: Father-Daughter Songs

'Memories' from Cats. It has always been one of my dad's favorites. I am also going to include a second song, probably after 'Memories', as a fun twist... 'Willie Mickey and the Duke (We're talking Baseball). Maybe not the whole song, but at least some of it. My dad and I are big time into baseball, and I thought this would be a cute way to incorporate that into the wedding.

Re: Father-Daughter Songs

I chose 'Daughter of Mine' by Irish Tenor John McDermott


These are the thoughts of a father
On the wedding day of his daughter
As his mind wanders back to the first time he held her
He looks at her now, the same pride in his eyes
As onto the dance floor they glide
This is the dance of the bride and her father

Dance with me daughter of mine
On this your wedding day
Dance with me daughter of mine
You'll soon be going away
I loved you since you first began
Now you've found a new man
But I love you so, and this you must know
That my love won't falter
So dance with me daughter
Beautiful daughter of mine


We walk down the aisle
On my face there's a smile
But deep in my heart there's a tear
Our friends and relations are here in the church
With smiles on their faces they stare
As we walk t'ward the man who has stolen your heart
And to whom I must give you away
But I wish you love and happiness too
On this your wedding day


Chorus

The dance has begun
We twirl around the floor
But I know you're not my little girl anymore
A lovely young woman has taken her place
And there's happiness written all over her face
But always remember although we must part
You may leave my arms but never my heart


Chorus
