The answer to this proved surprisingly hard to find, so I had to go to the source.

The music for the 2012 Hallmark film "Come Dance With Me" was written by Canada-born (but Hollywood-based) TV- and film-score composer Stacey Hersh, and the song is called "Waltz for Christine." Hersh promises that the song "will be available for purchase on iTunes very soon."

The name is pretty utilitarian, as is frequently the case with film and TV scores -- it refers to the fact that the song is played when the main character, Jack (played by former brat-pack member Andrew McCarthy), waltzes with Christine (played by "Saving Hope" actress Michelle Nolden).

Hersh said he enjoyed having his song figure centrally in the plot. "It is always satisfying for a composer when music becomes a featured part of a film."

In the film, Jack takes dance classes to learn to waltz in order to impress his girlfriend, and her influential father. However, he soon starts to fall for his dance instructor, Christine.

Hersh has had a long association with Hallmark, penning music for several of its telefilms. However, his real relationship is with producers Lewis Chesler and David Perlmutter, who have cranked out 36 telefilms in the last two decades, mostly for Hallmark and Lifetime. Hersh has composed the music for 19 of those, starting with the 2006 Lifetime film "Between Truth and Lies."

Most have been somewhat schmaltzy romances and Christmas stories ("Come Dance With Me" falls into both of those categories), however not all. Chesler/Perlmutter Productions has a good relationship with the Syfy network, too, and so Hersh has had to turn to darker, creepier tones for his work on such films as "Red: Werewolf Hunter" (2010) and "Witchslayer Gretl" (2012).
