Non-Country Father/Daughter Wedding Song?

Hello everyone, I'm getting married this October, and I'm trying to help my fiance find a song that she could dance with her father at her wedding. There isn't one specific song she likes, but googling for father/daughter songs brings 99% of country or western songs, the rest being ridiculous. We live in Quebec, but everyone's fluent in both french and english, so it's not a problem.

    I like Father and Daughter by Paul Simon. It's different. Definitely not country...

    If you ever leap awake

    In the mirror of a bad dream

    And for a fraction of a second

    You can't remember where you are

    Just open your window

    And follow your memory upstream

    To the meadow in the mountain

    Where we counted every falling star

    I believe the light that shines on you

    Will shine on you forever

    And though I can't guarantee

    There's nothing scary hiding under your bed

    I’m gonna stand guard

    Like a postcard of a Golden Retriever

    And never leave till I leave you

    With a sweet dream in your head

    I'm gonna watch you shine

    Gonna watch you grow

    Gonna paint a sign

    So you'll always know

    As long as one and one is two

    There could never be a father

    Who loved his daughter more than I love you

    Trust your intuition

    It's just like going fishing

    You cast your line

    And hope you'll get a bite

    But you don't need to waste your time

    Worrying about the market place

    Try to help the human race

    Struggling to survive its harshest night

    I'm gonna watch you shine

    Gonna watch you grow

    Gonna paint a sign

    So you'll always know

    As long as one and one is two

    There could never be a father

    Who loved his daughter more than I love you

    I'm gonna watch you shine

    Gonna watch you grow

    Gonna paint a sign

    So you'll always know

    As long as one and one is two

    There could never be a father

    Who loved his daughter more than I love you

    I'm getting married next summer and I have been thinking about this a lot lately. I decided on "Unforgettable" by Nat and Natalie Cole because when I was 3 or 4 years old that was our song and every time it came on he's pick me up and start dancing with me. I wanted something that had meaning to us.

    The other one I was contemplating was "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob Carlisle.

    well when i get married, me and my dad are dancing to "As the World Falls Down" by David Bowie. Its a little bit 80's but its a really good song.

    I've always wanted to walk down the aisle to the "Brazilian Wedding March" performed by Take Six and arranged by Quincy Jones. It's one of the songs on his "Back on The Block " CD.
