Song to dance with mom-not dad

I need help girls.
My mother will be walking me down the aisle and I want to dance a song with her but have no idea what song would be appropriate. Do you have any ideas?
Do you think it will look stupid if we dance together?
help???

Re: Song to dance with mom-not dad

My mom is walking me down the aisle too. We are going to dance together to the song.. You were my strength when I was weak, you were my voice when I couldnt speak, you were my eyes when I couldnt see, you saw the best there was in me, lifted me up when I couldnt reach, you gave me faith cause you believed...................
.................... I am everything I am, because you loved me!!!
OMG I couldnt remember the song. But it is so true that song!!
Let me know what you think.

Re: Song to dance with mom-not dad

Ok I am dancing with my mom being my Dad has passed. She didnt want a song that was too slow, so we are doing a song dedicated to my Dad. We are doing the song that you may know from ER or commercials it's "Somewhere over the Rainbow" by IZ Kamakawiwo'ole. He's a Hawaiian singer that sings it with his Eukalale (sp?). I love it.

In my daughter's eyes I am a hero
I am strong and wise and I know no fear
But the truth is plain to see
She was sent to rescue me
I see who I wanna be
In my daughter's eyes

In my daughter's eyes everyone is equal
Darkness turns to light and the
world is at peace
This miracle God gave to me gives me
strength when I am weak
I find reason to believe
In my daughter's eyes

And when she wraps her hand
around my finger
Oh it puts a smile in my heart
Everything becomes a little clearer
I realize what life is all about

It's hangin' on when your heart
has had enough
It's giving more when you feel like giving up
I've seen the light
It's in my daugter's eyes

In my daughter's eyes I can see the future
A reflection of who I am and what will be
Though she'll grow and someday leave
Maybe raise a family
When I'm gone I hope you see how happy
she made me
For I'll be there
In my daughter's eyes

Re: Song to dance with mom-not dad

I danced with my mom and I don't think it is stupid.

I was going to dance with her to celine Dion's "Because You loved me"..but our song was "Lady in Red". I was in a wedding when I was younger and they played that song. She said that was the first time she realized that I didn't look like a little girl anymore (I think I was 14). We cry together every time we hear it.
