Lyrics: Daddy's Little Girl
by Joy Saunders Lundberg
(1st verse)
My little baby daughter, you’re Daddy’s little girl.
You give a whole new meaning to my busy crazy world.
You make my heart so happy the way you smile at me.
Your little eyes start dancing and then I can clearly see.
The things that really matter aren’t praises I have known,
But all the joy I’m feeling when I walk into our home,
For then my work-day troubles all vanish in a whirl,
‘Cause I get hugs and kisses from Daddy’s little girl.
(2nd verse)
I’d seen so many daddies and longed to be as they,
To have my own dear daughter to watch over every day.
And then this little bundle so beautiful and new
Was giv’n to us by someone who knew we needed you.
I knew from that first moment that nothing I could say
Could quite express the feeling how you stole my heart away.
You cheeks were soft and tender, I loved your tiny curls.
There was no doubt about it, you were Daddy’s little girl.
(3rd verse)
With every day that passes like waves upon the sea,
I cherish every moment as you grow more dear to me.
I always will remember the times we laughed and played,
The times I helped you practice to be good and to obey.
Too soon will come the season when you’ll be all grown up
And bringing joy to others as you also fill their cup.
You have a happy future to live in this big world,
But don’t forget, you’ll always be Daddy’s little girl.
(Tag)
So dance with me, my baby, we’ll do a little twirl
To celebrate the fact that you are Daddy’s little girl.
