 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,
 oh but most of  all, for...
Butterfly  Kisses  after bedtime  prayer
 Sticking 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"
With  all I've done wrong  I must have done something  right
 To deserve her  hug every morning and  butterfly kisses at  night
Sweet  sixteen today,
 She's looking  like her momma a little more  everyday.
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
 Sticking little  white flowers  all up  in her hair
"You  know how much I love you daddy, but  if you dont mind..
I'm  only going to kiss you on the cheak  this time
With  all I've done wrong  I must have done something  right
 To deserve her  hug every morning and  butterfly kisses at  night
 (I dont know about this part really, sorry)
 All the precious time.
 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 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....an  gave me....
Butterfly  Kisses  with her  mamma there
 Sticking little  white 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."
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...
 (Such a sad song, i cant sing it because i get all teary eyes hahaha jks ENJOY EVERYONE)
