Gotta hold on easy
as I let you go
Gonna tell you how
much I love you
Though you think you
already know
I remember I thought
you looked like an angel
wrapped in pink
so soft and warm
You've had me wrapped
around your finger
since the day
you were born
You're beautiful baby
from the outside in
Chase your dreams
but always know the road
that'll lead you home again
Go on, take on
this whole world
But to me you know
you'll always be
my little girl
When you were in trouble
that crooked little smile
could melt my heart
of stone
Now look at you
I've turned around and
you've almost grown
Sometimes you're asleep
I whisper I love you in the
moonlight at your door
As I walk away
I hear you say
Daddy, love you more
You're beautiful baby
from the outside in
Chase your dreams
but always know the road
that'll lead you home again
Go on, take on
this whole world
But to me you know
you'll always be
my little girl
Someday, some boy
will come and ask
me for your hand
But I won't say yes to
him unless I know
he's the half that
makes you whole
He has a poet's soul
and the heart
of a man's man
I know he'll say
that he's in love
But between you and me
He won't be good enough
You're beautiful baby
from the outside in
Chase your dreams
but always know the road
that'll lead you home again
Go on, take on
this whole world
But to me you know
you'll always be
my little girl
