Eric Clapton - Butterfly Kisses
There’s two things I know for sure
She was send here from heaven and she’s daddy’s little girl
As I dropped 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
Oooh, 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 should tried
Oooh 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 momma, a little more every day
One part woman the other part girl
To perfume and make-up, 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..
Oooh with all that i’ve done wrong I must have done something right
To deserve her love every morning,
And butterfly kisses at night...
Breakdown
She’ll change her name today
She’ll make her promise
And i’ll give her away
Standing in the bride-room just staring at her
She asks me what I’m thinking and I said that i’m not sure
I just feel like i’m losing my baby girl
And she leaned over
Gave me butterfly kisses with her (..?) there
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk me down the isle daddy it’s just about time
Does my wedding (..?) look pretty daddy
Daddy don’t cry
Oooh, 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 got to let her go
But i’ll always remember, every hug in the morning
And butterfly kisses....
