FH'S DANCE ?????

DH was in the same situation, mom passed and only one sister. They danced to 'Through the Years'. They were both hysterical by the end. their mom died when they were both only 15 and 11 years old, so they're very close.

I wasnt' sure how to react when he cried... he didnt' cry when WE danced our first dance. wasn't sure if i should be touched or miffed! ( it was touching, seriously).

I tried to post last night but my internet cut out!


Anyway.. I'm very sorry to hear about all this! Your poor FH!

I head a similar situation a few years ago and this is the song that was played. It gave me goodbumps. I dont like counrty but I love this song.
Its Landslide by the Dixie Chicks.

Here are the lyrics:

I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Well, Ive been afraid of changing cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
Im getting older too
Well...

Well, Ive been afraid of changing cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
Im getting older, too
Well Im getting older too

So, take this love and take it down
Year and if you climb a mountain and ya turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well the landslide brought me down
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well maybe
Well maybe
Well maybe the landslide will bring you down

Don't know if it's too sad...Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On theme to Titanic:

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're one

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

There is some love that will not go away

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

There you'll be ... by Faith Hill


When I think back on these times,
And the dreams we left behind,
I'll be glad cause I was blessed to get,
To have you in my life,

When I look back on these days,
I look and see your face,
You were right there for me.

Bridge:

In my dreams I've always seen you soar above the sky,
In my heart there'll always be a place for you,
For all my life,

Chorus:

I'll keep a part of you with me,
And everywhere I am there you'll be,
and everywhere I am there you'll be,

Well you showed me how it feels,
To feel the sky within my reach,
And I always will remember all,
The strength you gave to me,
Your love made me make it through,
Ohh I owe so much to you,
You were right there for me.

Bridge:

In my dreams I've always seen you soar above the sky,
In my heart there'll always be a place for you,
For all my life,

Chorus:


I'll keep a part of you with me,
And everywhere I am there you'll be,

Cause I always saw you in my life, my strength,
And I wanna thank you now for all the ways,
You were right there for me, you were right there for me
Always!!

Bridge:

In my dreams I've always seen you soar above the sky,
In my heart there'll always be a place for you,
For all my life,

Chorus:

I'll keep a part of you with me,
And everywhere I am there you'll be,
And everywhere I am there you'll be,
There You'll Be

I don't know if it helps but my Dad passed away just 3 days before our wedding... I danced with my brother to 'Stand By Me' and it worked very well for us that day. (To be honest, it's one of my most treasured moments of the whole day). We really wanted something a little upbeat (my bro's a great guy, who can't dance to save his b*tt), Here are the lyrics, and good luck to you and your FH!!! And no matter what you choose, it will be a beautiful, poignant dance....

When the night has come
And the land is dark,
And the moon is the only light we'll see.
No I won't be afraid,
Oh I won't be afraid,
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

So darlin' darlin' stand by me,
Oh stand by me,
Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me.

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall,
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea.
I won't cry, I won't cry,
No I won't shed a tear,
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.

And darlin' darlin' stand by me,
Oh stand by me,
Whoa stand now, stand by me, stand by me.

Darlin' darlin' stand by me,
Oh stand by me,
Oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me.

Whenever you're in trouble just stand by me,
Oh stand by me,
Whoa stand now, oh stand, stand by me.

LOVE this song!!! my dad and i danced to it at my wedding!
its actually by fleetwood mac originally, so there is a non country version of it, too!

OMG - I am going to cry!!! forget about him not crying. Honestly, i dont see how he can't address their absence - they were important parts of his life. I can understand - its a 'happy ' time for him, but its also bittersweet/ I just don't know....

'seasons of love ' from Rent soundtrack?
