what are the lyrics to the father daughter dances you ladies have chosen

here is mine its by mike douglas its called
the men in my little girls life

The men in my little girl's life
The men in my little girl's life
It seems like only yesterday when I heard my little girl say
'Daddy, there's a boy ouside, his name is Rod.
He wants to play in our backyard
Can he daddy? Can he daddy? Oh please daddy.'

Is it really so long ago she'd come to me and wanna know
'Dad, there's a boy outside, his name is Lee.
He wants to carry my books for me.
Can he daddy? Is it alright, dad? He's got freckles, dad.'

The men in my little girl's life
The men in my little girl's life
Then came pony tails and jeans and my little girl was in her teens
'Popsie, there's a boy outside, his name is Tom.
He wants to take me to the prom.
OK, popsie? He's cute, popsie. We'll be home early, popsie.'

Before I knew it time had flown and how my little girl had grown
Now it was 'Father, there's a boy outside, his name is Eddie.
He wants to know if we can go steady.
Can we, father? Yes, father. Oh, can we borrow the car, pop?'

Yes it seems only yesterday I heard my lovely daughter say
'Dad, there's a boy outside, his name is Jim.
He asked me if I'd marry him. I said yes, dad.
Got something in your eye, dad? I love him, dad.'

The men in my little girl's life
The men in my little girl's life
A child, an adolescent, a young lady, a wife
And oh yes, there's another man in my little girl's life
'Hi dad, there's a boy outside, his name is Tim.
I told him Grampa was gonna babysit him.

Thanks, dad. Bless you, dad. Good night, dad.'
The men in my little girl's life
The men in my little girl's lif

I just got chills!!

Mine is called Turn Around by The Kingston Trio...my dad picked it out:

Where are you going my little one, little one
Where are you going my baby my own
Turn around and you’re two, turn around and you’re four
Turn around and you’re a young girl going out of the door

Turn around (turn around)
Turn around (turn around)
Turn around and you’re a young girl goin’ out of the door

Where are you going my little one, little one
Dirndls and petticoats, where have you gone
Turn around and you’re tiny, turn around and you’re grown
Turn around and you’re a young wife with babes of your own

Turn around and you’re a young
Turn around and you’re a young wife with babes of your own

Where are you going my little one, little one
Where are you going my baby my own
Turn around and you’re two, turn around and you’re four
Turn around and you’re a young girl going out of my door

i like that song sooo sentimental

You're the end of the rainbow, my pot of gold
You're daddy's little girl to have and to hold
A precious gem is what you are
You're mommy's bright and shining star

You're the spirit of Christmas, my star on the tree
You're the Easter Bunny to mommy and me
You're sugar, you're spice, you're everything nice
And you're daddy's little girl



You're the treasure I cherish, so sparkling and bright
You were touched by the holy and beautiful light
Like angels that sing, a heavenly thing
And you're daddy's little girl

My dad wanted this song, I am not crazy about it...might convince him to change it...

Lyrics My Little Girl - Steve Kirwan

From the moment I first held you
And rocked you to sleep
In my heart I knew
A child is never yours to keep
I knew one day you'd learn to fly
But I never dreamed what I'd feel inside

CHORUS

As I dance the last dance
With my little girl
And the first with the woman
Who's found her place in the world
I see the woman in you
But for my whole life through
You'll always be my little girl


You wrapped me 'round your finger
Your smile made me melt
I wished so many times
I would've told you what I felt
From your first steps
to sweet sixteen
The rush of memories
feels like a dream

CHORUS

I see the woman in you
But for my whole life through
You'll always be my little girl

my sister used this for her wedding. it was so beautiful. everyone was crying.

YOU RAISE ME UP by Josh Groban

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

My dad picked this out... He loves Stevie Wonder... not sure how appropriate though...

'You Are The Sunshine Of My Life'

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always be around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you'll stay in my heart

I feel like this is the beginning,
Though I've loved you for a million years,
And if I thought our love was ending,
I'd find myself drowning in my own tears

You are the sunshine of my life,
That's why I'll always stay around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you'll stay in my heart

You must have known that I was lonely,
Because you came to my rescue,
And I know that this must be heaven,
How could so much love be inside of you?

You are the sunshine of my life, yeah,
That's why I'll always stay around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you'll stay in my heart

butterfly kisses by bob carlyse

There's two things I know for sure:
She was sent here from heaven and she's
daddy's little girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night
She talks to Jesus and I close my eyes and
I thank god for all the joy in my life
Oh, but most of all
For butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer;
sticking little white flowers all up in her
hair; 'Walk beside the pony, Daddy, it's my first ride.'
'I know the cake looks funny, Daddy, but I sure tried.'
In all that I've done wrong I know I must
have done something right to deserve a hug
every morning and butterfly kisses at night.

Sweet 16 today
She's looking like her mama a little more everyday
One part woman, the other part girl.
To perfume and make-up from ribbons and curls
Trying her wings out in a great big world.

But I remember
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer; sticking
little white flowers all up in her hair.
'You know how much I love you, Daddy, But if you
don't mind I'm only gonna kiss you on the cheek this time.'
With all that I've done wrong I must have done
something right to deserve her love every morning
and butterfly kisses at night.

All the precious time
Like the wind, the years go by.
Precious butterfly.
Spread your wings and fly.

She'll change her name today.
She'll make a promise and I'll give her away.
Standing in the bride-room just staring at her.
She asked me what I'm thinking and I said 'I'm not
sure-I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl.'
She leaned over...gave me butterfly kisses with her mama there,
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
'Walk my down the aisle, Daddy-it's just about time.'
'Does my wedding gown look pretty, Daddy? Daddy, don't cry!'

Oh, with all that I've done wrong I must have
done something right.
To deserve your love every morning and butterfly
kisses-I couldn't ask God for more, man this is what love is.

I know I gotta let her go, but I'll always remember
every hug in the morning and butterfly kisses.

thats my song also

I loved her first by Heartland


Look at the two of you dancing that way
Lost in the moment and each others face
So much in love your alone in this place
Like there's nobody else in the world
I was enough for her not long ago
I was her number one
She told me so
And she still means the world to me
Just so you know
So be careful when you hold my girl
Time changes everything
Life must go on
And I'm not gonna stand in your way

But I loved her first and I held her first
And a place in my heart will always be hers
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
And I prayed that she'd find you someday
But it still hard to give her away
I loved her first

How could that beautiful women with you
Be the same freckle face kid that I knew
The one that I read all those fairy tales to
And tucked into bed all those nights
And I knew the first time I saw you with her
It was only a matter of time

But I loved her first and I held her first
And a place in my heart will always be hers
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
And I prayed that she'd find you someday
But its still hard to give her away
I loved her first

From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
Someday you might know what I'm going through
When a miracle smiles up at you
I loved her first

thats my song also

---

This is my song too. I just read the lyrics and got teary eyed. I hope I can make it through dancing to this song without crying. I highly doubt it though..

THE WAY YOU LOOK TONIGHT... Frank Sinatra
makes me cry every time i hear it

Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.

Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.

Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.

Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,
Just the way you look to-night.

Unfortunately my dad is passed, but I was thinking about dancing with my mom to this song. i love the words but i get a lot of flack for it b/c it's by n'sync

Lyrics for Music Of My Heart by N Sync


you'll never know what you've done for me
what your faith in me has done for my soul
and you'll never know the gift youve given me
i'll carry it with me

through the days ahead i'll think of days before
you made me hope for something better and made me reach for something more

Chorus:
You taught me to run
You taught me to fly
Helped me to free the me inside
Helped me hear the music of my heart
Helped me hear the music of my heart
You've opened my eyes, You've opened the door
To something I've never known before
And your love is the music of my heart
(music of my heart)

you were the one
always on my side(always on my side)
always standing by (always standing by)
seeing me through
you were the song that always made me sing (made me sing, made me sing)
im singin this for you (singin this for you babe)
everywhere i go i'll think of where i've been
and of the one who knew me better than anyone ever will again

Repeat Chorus

what you taught me
only your love could ever teach me
you got through when no one could reach me before
'cuz you always saw in me
all the best that i could be
it was you who set me free

Repeat Chorus

...is the music of my heart...

I chose
'butterfly kisses'
Im just too lazy to find the lyrics
