| Butterfly Kisses (Bob Carlisle & Randy Thomas) 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, 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 firs 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.

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 tine 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 bedroom Just staring at her She asked me what I'm thinking And I said "I'm not sure, I just feel that I'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, it's about time" "Does my wedding gown look pretty, daddy?" "Daddy, don't cry" With all 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 at night. |
