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 purfume 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.
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... and 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"
With all that 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...
