Lyrics
It started with toys
On carpeted floors
And playing tag with you
Out in the grass
Oh I miss that
Then pillow fights
And bowling nights
Midnight snacks
And piggy back rides
We never seem to get tired
Held your hand
All the way to the end
I sang those songs for you
To see you through
Did they see you through
It’s all your baby girl could do
Football games
Secret smoothie runs
Late late at night
Oh we knew we had too much fun
You’d whisper, “remember don’t tell Mom”
Your tired eyes
Looking back at mine
I see the pain
Through your smile
But you would always smile for me
And never let me see you hurt
But I know that it hurt
I wish I could’ve taken away
All the pain
But all I could do
For you was sing
I held your hand
All the way to the end
I sang those songs for you
To see you through
Did they see you through
It’s all your baby girl could do
57 seconds
I just counted hopelessly
Please let him breathe
57 seconds
I just stood there
Waiting to hear your grasp of relief
Daddy you always were
My very best friend
I held your hand
Even after the end
Oh how I’ll miss you my friend
But someone needed you more than me
I’m still your little girl
I just can’t sit on your knee
I wish you could still hold me
Your tired eyes looking back at mine
I swear that I saw heavens open
In their shine
As I heard, “Love you baby”
One last time
