Jeff Carson - Butterfly Kisses Lyrics
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 inmy life, But most of all, for...Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair."Walk beside the ponydaddy, 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 rightTo deserve a hug every morning,And butterfly kisses at night.Sweet sixteen today,She's looking like her mommaa little more everyday.One part woman, the other part girl.To perfume and makeup,form ribbons and curls.Trying her wings out in a greatbig 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 onthe cheek this time."With all that I've done wrongI must have done something right.To deserve her love every morning,And butterfly kisses at night.All the precious timeLike the wind, the years go byPrecious butterflySpread your wings and flyShe'll change her name today.She'll make a promise,and I'll give her away.Standing in the bride roomjust 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....and gave me....Butterfly kisses, with her mama thereSticking little 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."With all that I've done wrong, I must have donesomething rightTo deserve her love every morning,And butterfly kissesI couldn't ask God for more, man, this is what love isI know I've gotta let her go, but I'll always rememberEvery hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses.....at night
