Daughter of Mine
Beautiful Daughter full of grace
I pray that time caresses your face.
Today is only ribbons and bows,
Tomorrow it will be life and all for you
it holds.
Silk and satin, then leather and lace
candy covered kisses, dance class and
all the silly faces I hope I never miss.
Then someday you will stand up tall
all in white you will pledge in your wedding
trend and beside you will stand the man who
promises to love until the end.
I will go back to today, when I was watching
you as you played and I'll then give a smile for
I'll know how precious you are to me, then and now.
No matter what tomorrow brings along,
My love with be with you, your whole life long.
