What was/is your first dance song and father/daugther dance? I need suggestions

I'm torn between the Father/Daughter dance. I like "Find your Wings" by Mark Harris and "I Loved her First" by Heartland. No idea what he's picking for Mother/Son dance.
Our first dance song is "You've got a Friend in Me" - last song on the Toy Story soundtrack and is slightly slower than the normal theme song.

Our first dance will be to "Thank You for Loving Me" by Bon Jovi. Its been our song for the past 6 years.
His dance with his mom is going to be "Not While I'm Around" by Barbara Streisand
Right Now I am pushing "My Wish" by Rascall Flatts or "My Girl" by the Temptatitons for my Father and I. I don't want anything too mushy because thats really not my relationship with my dad. We are light hearted and I am not really a daddy's girl.

I Loved her First by Heartland. My niece got married 10/5 and danced with my brother-in-law to that song. I was taking pictures through tears watching them dance together. It was so beautiful. Here are the lyrics.


Look at the two of you dancing that way
Lost in the moment and each others face
So much in love your alone in this place
Like there's nobody else in the world
I was enough for her not long ago
I was her number one
She told me so
And she still means the world to me
Just so you know
So be careful when you hold my girl
Time changes everything
Life must go on
And I'm not gonna stand in your way

But I loved her first and I held her first
And a place in my heart will always be hers
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
And I prayed that she'd find you someday
But it still hard to give her away
I loved her first

How could that beautiful women with you
Be the same freckle face kid that I knew
The one that I read all those fairy tales to
And tucked into bed all those nights
And I knew the first time I saw you with her
It was only a matter of time

But I loved her first and I held her first
And a place in my heart will always be hers
From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
And I prayed that she'd find you someday
But its still hard to give her away
I loved her first

From the first breath she breathed
When she first smiled at me
I knew the love of a father runs deep
Someday you might know what I'm going through
When a miracle smiles up at you
I loved her first

I heard this song for the first time today, and I thought it would be perfect for a daddy/daughter dance:

"Cinderella" by Steven Curtis Chapman

Loved it soooo much!!!

I got married a few years ago, but my first dance was "Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis

for a mother/son song - you can always do "the wedding song" by peter, paul and mary

Father/Daughter - I always loved "I loved her first" by Heartland but another would be "turn around" by Kingston Trio.

All have been used in weddings I have been to and I found them especially fitting.

Our first dance will be "Thank You For Loving Me" by Bon Jovi... my favorite song by my favorite band!
For my dad I think I'll use "Father and Daughter" by Paul Simon. It was IMPOSSIBLE to find one that wouldnt make me cry... this was pretty much it! We also like "You'll Be In My Heart" by Phil Collins.
