The song is played by Louis Armstrong and as you listen to it, memories come to the surface revealing the child you have been and ready to hit the sack whenever this song started to be played. Louis Armstrong’s song was the signal that the bedtime was near, therefore you were supposed to go upstairs while your father was following you for his usual bedtime stories. And you still wonder now, as a grown up woman, about the new stories he came up with every time, stories that were meant to give you something to think about, each one of them with its morality and positive thinking. And the sounds of “A kiss to build a dream on” were accompanying his stories that in the end you fell asleep still having fresh the trace of his lips on your cheeks.
Back then you didn’t pay attention too much on the lyrics of the song, but now reaching for the father-daughter wedding dance song you listen to it and tears wet your eyes rolling down your face, as you come to understand that the good-night kiss meant so much to your father, and feelings of sorrow and nostalgia begin to flood you on the inside. Nostalgia for the times of careless childhood, when you had been taken care of and nothing upsetting crossed your existence, and feelings of sorrow because you are supposed to leave the parental house, the only place that has given you the feeling of protection, of being in the presence of the only persons that loved you the most in this world.

With all these emotions populating your heart you mark the song as being the father-daughter wedding dance song and you can hardly wait for the day to have it played and see how the gates of your past open letting the feelings of love come through, the fatherly love that you will sense while he holds you in his arms dancing to the song of your happy childhood.
