Here's a short song written as a duet. My daughter, Katie, sings the first verse, and I sing the second.

Daddy, daddy, daddyeo
Ain�t it �bout time that you let me go
A strong wind�s a blowin� and you need to know
I ain�t your little baby no more

There�s a whole world a waitin� past the garden gate
My friends are a callin� and I can�t be late
Don�t you think it�s time to face the winds of fate
And let me see how high I can soar
I ain�t your little baby no more

The world is a spinnin� at an awesome pace
The wind at our back - the sun in our face
The clockwork of time keeps a tickin� away
Tomorrow is a brand new day
Let me spread my wings and fly away

Daughter, daughter, daughter mine
I�d climb a hundred mountains just to watch you shine
But a strong wind�s a blowin� and I know it�s time
Still it�s hard to let you go

A whole world�s a waitin� past the garden gate
Your friends are a callin� and you can�t be late
Call it intervention of the winds of fate
So spread your wings and give it a whirl
But you�ll always be my little girl

The world is a spinnin� at an awesome pace
The wind at our back - the sun in our face
The clockwork of time keeps a tickin� away
Tomorrow is a brand new day
So spread your wings and fly away

�2006 David Elon Preston
