Could someone give me any ideas for a song that me and my dad could dance to at my wedding?

Answer 1

what about you raise me up either the origninal version or the westlife one it makes me cry every time i hear it as it atomatically makes me think of my dad and my dear grandad

Answer 2

This is a VERY popular one right now: I loved her first.

Look at the two of you dancing that way lost in the moment and each other’s face
So much in love you’re 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 going to stand in the way but
chorus
I Loved Her First I held her first
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
I prayed that she’d find you someday
But it’s still hard to give her away ‘cos
I Loved Her First
How could that beautiful woman with you be the same freckle faced 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
Chorus
Someday you might know what i’m going through
When a miracle smiles as up at you
I Loved Her First

You will both cry when you hear it. :)

Answer 3

Father Daughter Song by Paul Simon

Answer 4

Re the above suggestions for "Dance with my father again". Has anyone listened to the words of the song? It's about a father who is dead! Not very suitable for a joyous occasion like a wedding!

Answer 5

Definitely Bob Carlisle's Butterfly Kisses. Dance With My Father is a bit sad i think - though its a fantastic song.

Answer 6

Butterfly Kisses, Bob Carlisle!!

Answer 7

butterfly kisses by bob carlisle
here are the lyrics it is a beautiful song!! I'm danceing to it at my wedding!



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 her 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.

Also there's one by Steve Kirwan "My little girl"

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

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

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

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