 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 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 mamma

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 gonna 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 time

like the wind, when 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.
