Parent/Child songs....looking for help

I'm feeling VERY nostalgic and emotional and was looking for songs "parent" related (like I Loved Her First)

In my daughter eyes - Martina McBride

Heaven - Live

I hope you dance - ?????

I turn to you - Christina Auguleria

Jamie O'neil - Somebody's Hero (one of my favs)

Somebody's Hero By Jamie O'neil:
She's Never Pulled Anyone From A Burning Building
she's Never Rocked Central Park To A Half A Million Fans, Screaming Out Her Name
she's Never Hit A Shot To Win The Game
she's Never Left Her Footprints On The Moon
she's Never Made A Solo Hot Air Balloon Ride, Around The World,
no, She's Just Your Everyday Average Girl (But)

she's Somebody's Hero
a Hero To Her Baby With A Skinned Up Knee
a Little Kiss Is All She Needs
the Keeper Of The Cheerios
the Voice That Brings Snow White To Life
bedtime Stories Every Night
and That Smile Lets Her Know
she's Somebody's Hero

she Didn't Get A Check Every Week Like A Nine-To Fiver
but She's Been A Waiter, And A Cook And A Taxi Driver
for Twenty Years, There At Home, Until The Day Her Girl Was Grown
giving All Her Love To Her Was Her Life's Ambition
but Now Her Baby's Movin' On, And She'll Soon Be Missin' Her
but Not Today, Those Are Tears Of Joy Runnin' Down Her Face

she's Somebody's Hero
a Hero To Her Daughter In Her Wedding Dress
she Gave Her Wings To Leave The Nest
it Hurts To Let Her Baby Go Down The Aisle She Walks Right By
looks Back Into Her Mother's Eyes
and That Smile Lets Her Know
she's Somebody's Hero

thirty Years Have Flown Right Past
her Daughters' Starin' At All The Photographs
of Her Mother, And She Wishes She Could Be Like That
oh, But She Already Is

she's Somebody's Hero
a Hero To Her Mother In A Rockin' Chair
she Runs A Brush Through Her Silver Hair
the Envy Of The Nursing Home
she Drops By Every Afternoon
feeds Her Mama With A Spoon
and That Smile Lets Her Know
her Mother's Smile Lets Her Know
she's Somebody's Hero

I love Amazing too! I alwaysChat Icon when I hear it.

I also love Beautiful Boy. Chat Icon

And, it's not really a "parent" song but it could be...The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face. It just reminds me of when he was first born and I wouldn't let him go and he slept on my chest Chat Icon

Lyrics:

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command

The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart beat close to mine
I thought our joy would fill the earth
And would last till the end of time my love
And would last till the end of time

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies

Carly Simon - Love of my Life

This is the chorus:
You're the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
From the moment I first saw you
The second that you were born
I knew that you were the love of my life
Quite simply the love of my life

I get tears in my eyes every time I hear it. Chat Icon Chat Icon

"My Little Girl" by Tim McGraw is mine and my dad's song, it's beautiful.

For DS, I always think of him when I hear "Beautiful Boy", "My Wish", "Miracle", "Amazing", and "I Hope You Dance"
