歌词
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 (1) 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 (2) prayer
Sticking (3) little white flowers all up in her hair
"Walk beside the pony (4), daddy, it's my first ride (5)."
"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 (6) 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 (7)
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 (8),
I'm only going to kiss you on the cheek(9) 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 the precious (10) 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 (11)
Standing in the bride room just staring at her (12)
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 (13), and gave me...
Butterfly kisses, with her mama there
Sticking little flowers all up in her hair
"Walk me down the aisle (14), daddy,
it's just about time."
"Does my wedding gown (15)
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
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses...
