please help me decide on my mother/daughter dance song!

veganbunny

I am deciding between:

Billy Joel - Just The Way You Are

I Hope You Dance - Lee Ann Womak

I Turn To You - Christina Aguilara

I am going by lyrics at this point.  What do you guys think?  My mom actually has liked Billy Joel for a while, but i'm not sure about the lyrics making the most sense.

 

I need to decide today =/

Just a suggestion, but look into "Somebody's Hero" by Jamie O'Neal.  The words are all about a mother daughter relationship; the first time I heard it I had to pull over on the side of the road, I was crying so hard.

If you are going by lyrics, I would say that is the best fit for a mother-daughter dance, since it's a song about the relationship.

I'm partial to I hope you dance. I love that song.

In my Daughter's Eyes is a beautiful song too. My mom made all of us a cd one year for Christmas and that was one of the songs on the cd. Makes me cry everytime!

Carrie Underwood has a great new one.. it's Mama's Song... It is a very fitting song... I think I might add it in to our "special dances".. not sure yet. Here are the lyrics:

Mama you taught me to do the right things
So now you have to let your baby fly
You've given me everything that I will need
To make it through this crazy thing called life
And I know you watch me grow up and always want whats best for me
And I think I found the answer to your prayers

And he is good, so good
He treats your little girl like a real man should
He is good, so good, he makes promises he keeps
No he's never gonna leave
So dont you worry about me
Dont you worry about me

Mama theres no way you'll ever lose me
And giving me away is not goodbye
As you watch me walk down to my future, I hope tears of joy are in your eyes

Cuz he is good, so good
He treats your little girl like a real man should
He is good, so good, he makes promises he keeps
No he's never gonna leave
So dont you worry about me
Dont you worry about me

And when I watch my little baby grow I'll only want whats best for her

And I hope she'll find the answer to my prayers
And that she'll say

He is good, so good
He treats your little girl like a real man should
He is good, so good, he makes promises he keeps
No he's never gonna leave
So dont you worry about me
Dont you worry about me

Mama dont you worry about me

Dont you worry about me
