She's pulling at me saying "Dad I need you!
There's a ball at the castle and I've been invited and I need to practice my dancin'"
"Oh please, daddy, please!"

So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh I will dance with Cinderella
I don't wanna miss even one song,
Cuz all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone

She says he's a nice guy and I'd be impressed
She wants to know if I approve of the dress
She says "Dad, the prom is just one week away,
And I need to practice my dancin'"
"Oh please, daddy, please!"

So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Ohh-oh ohh-oh, I will dance with Cinderella
I don't wanna miss even one song,
Cuz all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone
She will be gone.

Well, she came home today
With a ring on her hand
Just glowin' and tellin' us all they had planned
She says "Dad, the wedding's still six months away
but I need to practice my dancin'"
"Oh please, daddy please!"

So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Ohh-oh ohh-oh, I will dance with Cinderella
I don't wanna miss even one song,
(even one song)
Cuz all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone

OMG... I never heard that song! I LOVE the lyrics! sooo cute!

Being a HUGE fan of Tim McGraw, I agree with My Little Girl. Second choice would be Butterfly Kisses.

Congratulations to your daughter and your family.

Lexi Rae · 04-02-2009, 12:09 PM

you know, when i got married, i had the theme song from the godfather, i forget it, anyway i regret the fact that i never had the song
daddies little girl.. till this day... i knew my dad was upset i didnt have it, but at the time i didnt feel like his little girl.. i can kick myself where the sun dont shine for doing that to him... i will never forget the look on his face.

maxlover · 04-02-2009, 05:50 PM

These are the thoughts of a father
On the wedding day of his daughter
As his mind wanders back to the first time he held her
He looks at her now, the same pride in his eyes
As onto the dance floor they glide
This is the dance of the bride and her father

Dance with me daughter of mine
On this your wedding day
Dance with me daughter of mine
You'll soon be going away
I loved you since you first began
Now you've found a new man
But I love you so, and this you must know
That my love won't falter
So dance with me daughter
Beautiful daughter of mine

We walk down the aisle
On my face there's a smile
But deep in my heart there's a tear
Our friends and relations are here in the church
With smiles on their faces they stare
As we walk t'ward the man who has stolen your heart
And to whom I must give you away
But I wish you love and happiness too
On this your wedding day

Chorus

The dance has begun
We twirl around the floor
But I know you're not my little girl anymore
A lovely young woman has taken her place
And there's happiness written all over her face
But always remember although we must part
You may leave my arms but never my heart

Chorus

My daughter danced to this with her dad on her wedding day. It was a beautiful dance and not a dry eye! It is by John McDermott, called Daughter of Mine.

I LOVE this song but since he lost his little girl I can never listen to it without thinking about how sad and tragic it is for him and his family...I end up tearing up because it breaks my heart. It would kill the whole mood....

I danced with my step-father to Nat/Natalie Cole's "Unforgettable" My dad had passed away 9 months before our wedding. I was blessed to have my "father" there with me though. LOVE him!

When my daughter gets married she'll have to pick 2 songs, one for her daddy and one for her "father", my DH, who has been the main male presence in her life. I plan on a mother/daughter dance as well. "I Hope You Dance" always kills me and makes me think of her every time I hear it!! Her and I danced to "Brown-Eyed Girl" at my wedding since I would sing that to her when she was a baby and has always been our song

How do they grow so fast...??? God Bless you for going through this with two!!

msjagg · 04-02-2009, 08:10 PM

Best wishes to you and both your Daughters on their upcoming weddings! I Love Butterfly Kisses, It always makes me cry. My Daddy was in the hosp. with his first Heart Attack @ my Wedding and could'nt attend. I've always regretted having missed that opportunity!! Enjoy it and remember it for always...

"DON'T BLINK"
by some Country Star

Butterfly Kisses is always a favorite for the father/daughter dance, can't go wrong!

My song with my dad is Wind Beneath My Wings by Bette Midler.

"Wind Beneath My Wings"

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.

So I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strength.
A beautiful face without a name for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
but I've got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.
I would be nothing without you.

Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're everything, everything I wish I could be.
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.

Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.

Although, rereading this, some of the other choices seem much better. I lost my dad in '98 after a year long battle with lung cancer. Ironically, I heard this song on the radio right before he passed away. I miss my dad, but hearing that song made me feel like everything was ok.

I love the Steven Curtis Chapman song! Bless him and his family!

My dad and I danced to "My Girl," because thats been one of my favorite's since I was very young. I love Tim McGraw's "My Little Girl" though. If my Papaw had been alive for my wedding, we would've danced to that song. Good luck with everything and blessings for your daughter's weddings!
