    Fly – by Celine Dione.

    It’s a true story about the loss of her young niece. Beautiful song!
    So sorry for your loss.
    ******************************************************
    Fly, fly little wing
    Fly beyond imagining
    The softest cloud, the whitest dove
    Upon the wind of heaven’s love
    Past the planets and the stars
    Leave this lonely world of ours
    Escape the sorrow and the pain
    And fly again

    Fly, fly precious one
    Your endless Journey has begun
    Take your gentle happiness
    Far too beautiful for this
    Cross over to the other shore
    There is peace all one word
    But hold this mem’ry bittersweet
    Until we meet.

    Fly, fly do not fear
    Don’t waste a breath, don’t shed a tear
    Your heart is pure, your soul is free
    Be on your way, don’t wait for me
    Above the universe you’ll climb
    On beyond the hands of time
    The moon will rise, the sun will set
    But I won’t forget

    Fly, fly little wing
    Fly, where only angels sing
    Fly away, the time is right
    Go now, find the light.

    Ohhh, I am so very sorry for your loss!!!
    In regards to your question, I personally think you should light both a memory candle AND a unity candle. They are very different things. I would go online and check for songs, this way you can view all the lyrics etc. to make sure it’s what you both want. Congrats as well as sympathy to you both and may your future hold brighter times.

    I’m sorry to hear about your loss. How about "eternal flame" by the Bangles? or "if i saw you in heaven" by Eric Clapton? or "one sweet day" by Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men?

    I’m with Doxie, the song is a total tearjerker but its beautiful. I’ve actually danced to it a few times and it brings the house down…but it isn’t super melodramatic and over the top to the point where it will overhsadow the joy of the event
