Lyrics
for 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 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...
