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 of the joy in my life Oh but most of all ... for butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair Walk beside the pony, Daddy. It's 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 somethin
g right ... to deserve a hug every morning and butterfly kisses at night She's sweet sixteen today And she's looking like her mama a little more every day One part woman, the other part girl And to perfume and makeup from ribbons and curls Trying her wings out in a great big world But I remember ... those butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer Sticking 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 gonna kiss you on the cheek this time
Oh 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 this precious time Oh, 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 asks me what I'm thinking and I said I'm not sure I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl And she leaned over and gave me ... butterfly
kisses, with her mama there Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair Walk me down the aisle, Daddy. It's just about time. Does my wedding gown look pretty, Daddy? Daddy, don't cry. Oh 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 ... hugs in the morning and butterfly kisses at night
