Butterfly Kisses

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"
                                                  (let it ring)
With all I've done wrong I must have done something right                
                                                      
To deserve her hug every morning and butterfly kisses at night



             
Sweet sixteen today,
                                     
She's looking like her momma a little more everyday.
                           
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
                                          
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
                                    
"You know how much I love you daddy, but if you dont mind..
                                    
I'm only going to kiss you on the cheak this time
                                                  (let it ring)
With all I've done wrong I must have done something right                
                                                      
To deserve her hug every morning and butterfly kisses at night



(I dont know about this part really, sorry) 
                     
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 I'm losing my baby girl."  
                  
Then she leaned over....an gave me....



                               
Butterfly Kisses with her mamma 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."
                                                  (let it ring)
With all 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
                                                      (let it ring)
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses...
