"Walk with Me"

There is an emotional moment that a father shares with his daughter during the father/ daughter dance at the wedding reception. It is inherently sweet, the love of a father as he gives "Daddy's Little Princess" to her new husband. Heart-warming and heart-breaking at the same time. Thats why you want the song to be representative of the relationship between you and your father. We recently came across "Walk With You" by Edwin McCain, and let me tell you.... this song will make you cry!

You can get your free download here.

"Walk With You "

I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say “I do”
He will discover just how blessed a life can be
I know ‘cause all those years ago someone handed you to me
Every step that we take brings back the memories
Winter snows and horse shows and dancing on the beach
I can’t help thinking that I’m the lucky one
You’re still my baby daughter and now I’ve gained a son
I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say “I do”
He will discover just how blessed a life can be
I know ‘cause all those years ago your mom handed you to me
Don’t miss a chance to put each other first
Now that you’ve vowed for better or for worse
Don’t let the beauty of this life pass you by
In the times of trouble you’ll stand side by side
I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say ” I do”
I picture a slow sweet walk yet to be
When you’ll take my hand and say “Daddy come see”
Then you’ll know what it felt like
You won’t believe what it feels like
Then you’ll know what it felt like when she handed you to me.
She handed you to me
