Hmmmm...maybe:

Forever Young--either the Bob Dylan or the Rod Stewart (I think they're different)

Isn't She Lovely - Stevie Wonder

The Way You Look Tonight - Sinatra or one of many covers

Re: father/daughter dance

My dad and I danced to 'In My Life' by the Beatles. We have a closer relationship than the song indicated, but it meant something to us, which is why we used it. But if you listen to the lyrics, it's much more generic than father/daughter. It could be paying homage to your new husband by saying 'I love you now because of what has passed in my life before' -- which could include however your relationship with your father had been.


There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends
I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
there is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more

I think that 'What a Wonderful World' by Louie Armstrong is a nice song without extreme father daughter meaning.

My dad and I have an on-off relationship - I am dancing with him to 'Always on My Mind' - the Elvis version
