Song for a Daughter
My darlin', my baby little girl
I watched you come into this world
I looked down at you
You smiled back at me
The prettiest thing I'd ever seen
I'd buy you a new Sunday dress
With a locket from grandma's old chest
A Skip-to-My-Lou
A tea party for two
Just some of my memories of you
Little girl, little girl
Little girl, little girl
You'll always be my little girl
I knew the day would come
When you'd fall in love with someone
Had to let go your hand
Stand back with the band
And watch as your new life had begun
Oh, my baby, my darlin' little girl
Won't you take a lesson from this world
Life's peaches and cream ain't always what it seems
But don't let that darken your dreams
Now the future's turned into the past
And the years have gone by far too fast
When I'm over and done
Know you were the one
That made the love in my heart last
When I'm over and done
Know you were the one
That made the love in my heart last
Little girl, little girl
Little girl, little girl
You'll always be my little girl
You'll always be your daddy's little girl
I watched you come into this world
I looked down at you
You smiled back at me
The prettiest thing I'd ever seen
I'd buy you a new Sunday dress
With a locket from grandma's old chest
A Skip-to-My-Lou
A tea party for two
Just some of my memories of you
Little girl, little girl
Little girl, little girl
You'll always be my little girl
I knew the day would come
When you'd fall in love with someone
Had to let go your hand
Stand back with the band
And watch as your new life had begun
Oh, my baby, my darlin' little girl
Won't you take a lesson from this world
Life's peaches and cream ain't always what it seems
But don't let that darken your dreams
Now the future's turned into the past
And the years have gone by far too fast
When I'm over and done
Know you were the one
That made the love in my heart last
When I'm over and done
Know you were the one
That made the love in my heart last
Little girl, little girl
Little girl, little girl
You'll always be my little girl
You'll always be your daddy's little girl
