How about something like "Because You Loved Me" by Celine Dion (our daughter has chosen this song to be the one she and her dad dance to at her wedding reception)....below are the lyrics, if you are unfamiliar with the song:
For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I`ll be forever thankful baby
You`re the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You`re the one who saw me through
Through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn`t speak
You were my eyes when I couldn`t see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn`t reach
You gave me faith `coz you believed
I`m everything I am
Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch
The sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I`m greatful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don`t know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved
By you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn`t speak
You were my eyes when I couldn`t see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn`t reach
You gave me faith `coz you believed
I`m everything I am
Because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love
Into my life
You`ve been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because
Of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn`t speak
You were my eyes when I couldn`t see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn`t reach
You gave me faith `coz you believed
I`m everything I am
Because you loved me

Here`s my 2 cents: For specific dances, instead of trying to find a themed song ("Daddy`s Little Girl" for the father/daughter dance, which has been done a million times) why not pick a song you really like? It will be much more personal that way. Or find (online or wherever) a CD of beautiful instrumentals or classical music and copy the song list, then listen to them online to see which you like before you buy (or get from a Napster-type site or program)
