A song I wrote for my wife when her father became ill. |
A little girl Fishing with her Dad She'd play with the bait And he'd get mad But it was all in fun Who knew this day would come He'd kiss her head every night Tuck her into bed and hold her tight Nobody else did it just right The way he did All is love went to his kid That day I will never forget Her heart filled up with regret But you can't change the past Just cherish every moment and make it last And remember I'm here for you I'll do anything I need to do To try and help you through After that day came She was never quite the same The glisten in her eyes nearly faded away For the rest of my life I won't forget the day That daddy's little angel Became an angel's little girl In soccer she better try her best Or he'd pull her out and sit her on the bench She was always his special girl To him she meant the world Her mom was nervous before the game was through Knowing her daughter would be black and blue Trying to make her daddy proud She didn't care who else was around She moved away from home and felt guilty She'd say what will I do if he needs me If that happens we'll get in the car and drive The last thing I want is to see you cry I'd make the drive every night If it would make you feel alright That day I will never forget Her heart filled up with regret But you can't change the past Just cherish every moment and make it last And remember I'm here for you I'll do anything I need to do To try and help you through After that day came She was never quite the same The glisten in her eyes nearly faded away For the rest of my life I won't forget the day That daddy's little angel Became an angel's little girl |
