Is this song good to dance with my dad to?

Bridge Over Troubled Water...

I really love the song but wasn't sure..
also..I really love Leann Rimes version.

When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
When you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

of course I know the song, but reading the words you just posted really makes it sounds like a perfect father/daughter song! Good job thinking of it!

Something I want to do is list the lyrics for all the special songs we're playing at all the tables at our reception so our guests can read the words to the songs. Maybe that's something you can do to drive home the meaning behind your special dance songs, too? Just an idea... but I really think those words would be really nice for a song to dance with your dad to!

I love that song. Its really powerful... BUT I hear it at alot of funerals.. maybe thats just ones Ive been to?

That would be my only hesitation in using it.. that many people associate it with sad times?
