Angel (Daddy's Little Girl II)

My Angel, why do you cry?
I'm not going anywhere, I'm forever yours
To dismiss God's gift, I would be a fool
Come to me & let me carry you around for all to see
The reason for my attitude of Heartlessness
For my Heart lies her head upon me
Hair as soft as feathers from your wings
The Heavenly eyes that lift my spirit

I know soon you will take your first step in Life
Begin your walk on that long, windy road
I want to continue to hold you, even though I know I will soon have to set you down
Don't worry, I'll hold onto your hand & walk with you every step of the way

You can talk to me about anything until my final day
Even then, if you have anything else you want to say, all you'll have to do is pray
Never will I leave your side
In spirit, I'll be the parent that pushes their child on their bike, before letting you go on your own
Even then, I'll be forever yours
Love, Daddy...
