Sorry, I'm not familiar with the song and can't listen to it b/c I'm at work.
If you like it and the lyrics aren't too out there, go for it! It doesn't have to be conventional.
Sorry here are the lyrics...
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when she's gone there's that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go
(Slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did but most we didn't
And why I just don't know
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers
I just looked up the lyrics and that seems like a perfect fit! It doesn't have to be conventional at all... I'm dancing to "King of the World" by Point of Grace with my Dad. :)
i think it's a cute and original idea, but would consider something else...i am doing "unforgettable" by nat king cole and natalie cole or my girlfriend danced to beyonce's "daddy"
I just listened to this song from my Mamma Mia soundtrack and I love it! I think it's a great song for father/daughter. I might even use it. I am dancing with my dad and my step father and I think that this song is long enough for one of them to cut in but not as long as 2 whole songs! Thanks

Sorry, there are no users yet.
I love Slipping Through My Fingers from Mamma Mia. In the movie, it's the mother-daughter scene but do you think I could dance to it with my dad? Does it make a difference?
