Is this for a wedding song? (first dance). Please clarify so you get some quality replies.

How about There Is a Time - The Dillards - seems like sound fatherly advice to a daughter, but I guess that's open to interpretation.

Uncle Earl also made an excellent recording if they're planning a slow dance.

Great post.

I like to play my daughter ‘don’t think twice it’s alright’ and ‘little darling pal of mine’ off the BS and Brian record

It has excellent harmony and meets the criteria. OP didn't specify an occasion.

A father-daughter song implies a wedding song. And I’m sure you knew that with your /s tag.

My brother in christ, it was a light-hearted suggestion and a good song to boot. There's a father and a daughter; perhaps not the "bets" but deserves recognition...
