I've got her photograph
On the stand by my bed
Two on the mantle
and thousands in my head
I can't believe
how fast she's growin'
It ain't suppose to be like this
Every time I look at her
I see how much I've missed
I missed her first steps
And her first words
And I love you Daddy's
somethin' I seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so
To watch my girl grow
up in pictures
I send the money down
Do my best to do my part
But it can't compare
To what I paid with my heart
There's still
one answered question
That weighs heavy on my mind
Will she ever understand
the reasons why
I missed her first steps
And her first words
And I love you Daddy's
somethin' I seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so
To watch my girl grow
up in pictures
It takes all I have
to keep the tears inside
What I wouldn't give
if I could turn back time
I missed her first steps
And her first words
And I love you Daddy
Somethin' I seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so
To watch my baby grow
up in pictures
