Verse 1

 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...

Chorus

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

Verse 2

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...

Chorus

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 going to kiss you on the cheek 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

Bridge

 All the precious time.

 Like the wind, the years go by

 Precious butterfly.

Spread your wings and fly

Verse 3

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....

Final Chorus

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...
