Bob Carlisle - Butterfly
Kisses

There's two things I know for
sure:
She was sent here from heaven
and she's daddy's little
girl.
As I drop to my knees by her
bed at night
She talks to Jesus and I close
my eyes and
I thank god for all the joy in
my life
Oh, but most of all
For butterfly kisses after
bed

Bob Carlisle - Butterfly
Kisses

There's two things I know for
sure:
She was sent here from heaven
and she's daddy's little
girl.
As I drop to my knees by her
bed at night
She talks to Jesus and I close
my eyes and
I thank god for all the joy in
my life
Oh, 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 sure tried.'
In all that I've done wrong
I know I must have done
something right to deserve a
hug
every morning and butterfly
kisses at night.

Sweet 16 today
She's looking like her mama
a little more everyday
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.'
With all that I've done wrong
I must have done something
right to deserve her love
every morning
and butterfly kisses at
night.

All the precious time
Like the wind, the years go
by.
Precious butterfly.
Spread your wings and fly.

She'll change her name today.
She'll make a promise and I'll
give her away.
Standing in the bride-room
just staring at her.
She asked me what I'm thinking
and I said 'I'm not
sure-I just feel like I'm
losing my baby girl.'
She leaned over...gave me
butterfly kisses with her mama
there,
Sticking little white flowers

all up in her hair
'Walk my down the aisle,
Daddy-it's just about time.'
'Does my wedding gown look
pretty, Daddy? Daddy, don't
cry!'

Oh, with all that I've done
wrong I must have done
something right.
To deserve your love every
morning and butterfly
kisses-I couldn't ask God for
more, man this is what love
is.

I know I gotta let her go, but
I'll always remember
every hug in the morning and
butterfly kisses.
