DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL




DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL
What would you do if I came running to you
I don't need an answer, I know what you'd do
You'd hold out your arms and pull me close
And you'd whisper to me that you love me so

I miss your strong arms and the comfort you gave
Not only during trouble but every single day
I remember the feeling that I felt deep inside
To call you my Dad filled me with pride


You were a man of wisdom, strength and enormous love
The impression that you left with me, I'll never give up
I'm richer than so many, just for having known
A man of your distinction, gave me all his love to grow

The years go on without you and leave a void within
A void no one else can fill....the memories never dim
You walked this land and held my hand and now you've moved beyond
No longer within my reach, but my love goes on and on

Whisper.......
Daddy can't you hear the clock that's ticking on the wall?
Look at all the pictures that are hung up down the hall
Remember all the laughter and the tears that we have shared?
Remember how you held me tight and kissed away my tears?

Daddy can't you hear the clock that's ticking on the wall?
The pictures changed and I grew up, I was no longer small
Remember when you told me that I filled your life so full?
And always made me feel so special, life was wonderful


Daddy you can't hear the clock that's ticking on the wall?
The pictures that are hung up now are you when I was small
There is no one to hold me tight and kiss away the tears
You left me for a better place but I still feel you near

Daddy I can hear the clock that's ticking on the wall
It was so very long ago, aren't memories wonderful?
I feel your arms around me as you kiss away my tears
I hear you whisper softly "thats my little girl so dear."
