My Dying Bride ☆ A Kiss To Remember

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,
Oh, but most of all, for…

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ 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 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.
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.

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 I’m losing my baby girl.
Then she leaned over… and gave me…

Butterfly kisses, with her mama
there sticking 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.
Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every morning
and butterfly kisses

every hug in the morning,
and butterfly kisses…
