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
Oh with all that I've done wrong, I must of done something right
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night
Sweet sixteen today
She's looking like her Mama, 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 don't mind
I'm only gonna kiss you on the cheek this time
With all that I've done wrong, I must of done something right
To deserve her love every morning, and butterfly kisses at night

All the precious time,
Oh, 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 brideroom just staring at her
She asks me what I'm thinking, and I said I'm not sure
I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl,
And she leaned over
Gave me butterfly kisses with her Mama 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
Oh, with all that I've done wrong, I must of done something right
To deserve her love every morning, and butterfly kisses,
I couldn't ask God for more, than this is what love is
I know I gotta let her go, but I'll always remember
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses
