Grandfather/bride song help

My dad died when i was young and basically my mom raised my brother and i with the help of my grandparents. My grandpa is coming to the wedding and walking me down the aisle (my gram passed away last year) and i wanted to do a grandfather/granddaughter dance instead of a daddy/daughter dance. I am having the hardest time picking out a song though... I don't want anything too daddy cheesy or lame but it has to be slow because he's getting old... any ideas?
So far I have come up with 'When I needed you most' but I really don't like the version by Kimaya Seward so if anyone has another version or wants to tape themselves singing :) ....
Or
Kaysarra because it was my grandma's favorite song... but that my make him cry and i don't want him to be sad...

What about Wind Beneath my wings? I always think of my Grandma with that song.

Is there a song that you two used to dance to or that he would sing or anything when you were younger? I personally think an older song would be nice since he is your grandpa. Do you know what song he and your grandmother danced to at their wedding?

It will be an emotional day for all of you anyway and it might be a nice way to honor your grandmother by playing a song that reminds you all of her.

I cry at everything so there really is no way around getting emotional, regardless of the song!
