This page is in memory of my 
                 Dad

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 something right
To deserve a hug every morning and butterfly kisses at night
       Sweet 16 today
She's looking like her momma a little more every day
One part woman the other part girl
To perfume and make-up ribbons and pearls
Trying her wings out in a great big worl
           But I remember
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
          "You know how I love you Daddy
            But if you don't mind
I'm only gonna kiss you on the cheek this time"
With all that i'v done wrong I must have done something right
To deserve her love every morning and butterfly kisses at night
            All the precious time
Oh like the wind they 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 brideroom 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"
               Then she leaned over and gave me
                Butterfly kisses with her momma there
Stickin litte 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 I must have done something right
To deserve her love every mornng and butterfly kisses I couldn't ask God for more man this is what love is I know i've got to let her go
But i'll always remember every hug in the morning and butterfly kisses at night.   lyrics Bob Carlisle
