From the writer/composer/singer of “All To You” (a top 5 ‘Mother-Groom’ Wedding Dance Song, worldwide since 2010), we bring you “Beautiful Memory” by Scott Keo

You may have noticed a growing trend at weddings. Often times, at least one of the sets of parents has been divorced. Yet, there is really no song out there to address this emotion for the parents dances. Until now.

“Beautiful Memory” is sort of in its own sub-category of  ‘Father-Daughter’Dance Songs, that deals with the pains of divorce, but also the triumph of this beautiful moment in time.

A DJ’s story:

This song is the actual true life story about me and my daughter Amelya. In the youtube video provided, that is me at my DJ table watching the father-bride dance.

My divorce was as dark and as ugly as you can fathom. Hard  years for sure!

I was a full time Wedding DJ and a singer during the messy divorce.

At the hundreds of weddings which was the DJ at, I would announce the first dance and parent’s dances over the mic. When the ‘Father-Daughter’ song came on, I clearly remember thinking “Cool for that dad, probably never for me”. Sad thoughts only coming from me during that dance. I had to divert my attention to get back in “the game” mentally, and DJ with fun energy; not an easy task when you feel that you are losing your daughter to a horrible divorce. Lot of pain.

If the story ended there, that would be an awful song. Fortunately for the song and for our family, the story got way better. Turns out my daughter Amelya never gave up the whole time. While going to college, Amelya realized how much love I had always had for her, and I realized how much love she had for me all those years. Victory!

Recently, she got married to a great guy and she asked me to walk her down the aisle and....... I never thought  that this dance would come, but IT DID!!!!  And all those feelings I had during our dance are all documented in this song “Beautiful Memory”

Funny thing, is that since my other song”All To You” came out in 2010, people would often come up to me and ask me when I was going to write a ‘Father-Daughter’ song? I would always be perplexed at this question because I was not a daughter to a father. But, then it hit me hard last year- “Hey, now I have this amazing story to tell about my recently married daughter”. The words came flowing like a river, and I had enough lyrics for 3 separate songs, all in the matter of one hour on vacation in Europe. I guess the song was ready to be written!

I hope that this song makes it’s way into the hearts of the brides and dads who need it for healing, therapy and happiness.

Cheers!

LYRICS 

Beautiful Memory by Scott Keo  2018


I never thought that this dance would come.
Other dads sure, probably not this one.
Was never your fault. We had some real hard years.
Our family broke. We had our share of tears.

Our bond was so much more, than every other week.
Nobody quite like you. So amazing and unique.

You always had love, way down in your heart.
You never gave up, you’re my little star

You’re beautiful, in every single way.
It’s so bitter sweet, giving you away.

This is your big day
Soak everything in
Your greatest adventure
Is right about to begin

This beautiful memory always will be mine
And you’ve got my heart, for all time

For the rest of time
This beautiful memory, of my sunshine
It’s our moment in time

Tried to break us down but we made it through
The person you’ve become, so proud of you
The Father’s Day cards that you give to me
So much joy, in every line I read

You married a good one
Such a perfect fit
So excited for you
But I must admit

I never thought that this dance would come
You brighten(ed) my life, brighter than the sun

You’re beautiful, in every single way.
And now it’s so bitter sweet, giving you away.

This is your big day just
Take everything in
Your wildest adventure
Is right about to begin

This beautiful memory always will be mine
You’ll be in my heart, for all time

For the rest of time
This beautiful memory, of my sunshine
It’s our moment in time
