Mother/Daughter Dance help

Hello knotties, so i am looking for a mother/daughter song for a mother/daughter dance. my dad passed away when i was 3 months old and my mom never remarried, my mom suggested i dance with my grandpa (dad's dad) but i feel like i should dance with my mom because she has been there for me no matter what and she's the one who raised me and is giving me away.

but i'm having a hard time finding mother/daughter songs, i know of "i hope you dance" Lee Ann Womack, "slipping through my fingers" ABBA, "in my daughter's eyes" Martina McBride & and after that i'm stuc.

any suggestions? TIA

    My aunt did that because her dad died when she was 2.  She picked a wish apon a star but some of her choices were I turn to you (christina aguilera), Because you loved me, Im your angel ( C. Dion), wind beneath my wings (Bette Midler),  and every mothers dream.  I hope this helps.  GL

    I am in the same situation, and had never actually thought of having a mother/daughter dance. I think my mom will break down a little, but this is a good thought. Thanks for the idea!

    I haven't thought of this either, but I totally am now!!
    Are you just going with the swing of things when it comes time for the dance, or are you doing lessons?1

    My favorite mom song is Taylor Swift's "The Best Day". I'm dedicating that to my mom before the toasts.

    There's a very obscure song, by Carly Simon, called "Love of My Life". It's from a movie called "This is My Life". Every time I hear it, I tear up.........."from the moment I first saw you, from the second you were born, I knew you were the love of my life".

    Just tossing that in there. I also always pictured dancing with my dad to "Because You Loved me".


    Good luck. I'm sure whatever you choose will creat a "heart memory" for both of you.
