Mother/son Dance

I could really use some help, please. I'm trying to find a Mother/Son song. The catch here is that I am the bride, I don't have a father nor anyone still alive that I would consider my father figure. This is my first marriage and I definitely want this special moment, so I'll be dancing with my 21 y/o son. Seems every song I find is geared toward the bride dancing with her daddy. I can't find an appropriate song for a bride dancing with her son...
Any suggestions????

    There are many generic songs out there. I Hope You Dance by Leann Womack, What A Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong, Burn by Tina Arena

    Is there a song that's important to you and your son? If so, you could dance to that, and I think that would be really special.

    I heard "Precious Love" today again and still love it. It's by James Morrison.

    Lean on Me - the acoustic version by Joshua Radin is beautiful.

    We have a few, all are more fun and upbeat. I was wanting to go with a slower song. We could do a fun choreographed dance though.... He's kind of shy in that aspect, but maybe for this one time I could get him to do this for me 😆 Thanks!

    My FH and his mother do not have a relationship, but he and my mom get along great. This would certainly be an option so that both of us get that special dance, and this song is kinda perfect. Love this idea... Thank You!

    I’m doing the same…my father passed and my son will be 24. I’ve been single for 14 years we’ve been through a lot together, And I wanted a song that shared a sentiment of Acknowledging that my kids have been by my side through ups and downs and that there’s still a big part of my life as I move forward in this next chapter. Here are my top picks..
    1) Gladys Knight and the pips…”your the best thing that ever happened to me”
    2) Dolly Parton “from here to the moon and back again”3) Bruce Springsteen, “if I should fall behind”
