(
Words and Music By Bob Carlyle )
There's two things
I know for sure,
She was sent
here from heaven,
and she's daddy's
little girl.
As I drop to
my knees by her bed at night,
she talks to
Jesus and I close my eyes.
And I thank
God for all the joy in my life,
But most of
all, for...
Butterfly kisses
after bedtime prayer.
Stickin' little
white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk beside
the pony daddy,
its my first
ride."
"I know the
cake looks funny,
daddy, but I
sure tried."
Oh, with all
that I've done wrong,
I must have
done something right
To deserve a
hug every morning
And butterfly
kisses at night.
Sweet sixteen
today,
She's looking
like her momma
a little more
every day.
One part woman,
the other part girl.
To perfume and
makeup,
from ribbons
and curls.
Trying her wings
out in a great
big world. But
I remember...
Butterfly kisses
after bedtime prayer.
Stickin' little
white flowers all up in her hair.
"You know how
much I love you daddy,
But if you don't
mind,
I'm only going
to kiss you on
the cheek this
time."
With all that
I've done wrong,
I must have
done something right.
To deserve her
love every morning,
And butterfly
kisses at night.
All the precious
time
Like the wind,
the years go by
Precious butterfly
Spread your
wings and fly
She'll change
her name today.
She'll make
a promise,
and I'll give
her away.
Standing in
the bride room
just staring
at her,
she asked me
what I'm thinking,
and I said "I'm
not sure,
I just feel
like l'm losing my baby girl."
Then she leaned
over...and gave me...
Butterfly kisses,
with her mama there
Stickin' little
white flowers all up in her hair
"Walk me down
the aisle daddy, its just about time"
"Does my wedding
gown look pretty daddy?"
"Daddy don't
cry "
With all that
I've done wrong, I must have
done something
right
To deserve her
love every morning
And butterfly
kisses
I couldn't ask
God for more, man, this is
what love is
I know I've
gotta let her go, but I'll always remember
Every hug in
the morning and butterfly kisses...
