Gene Mitchell My Little Girl (Father to Daughter Wedding Song) lyrics

Verse 1
It was My Little Pony and Winnie-The-Pooh
Now itÂ’s something old, new, borrowed and blue
I remember her modeling her first summer dress
Her spinning around, me thinking, How IÂ’ve been blessed
It was running beside her on her first bicycle ride
Her sweet voice saying, “Daddy, it’s your turn to hide"
Christmas mornings; her face all aglow
Where did my little girl go

Chorus
SheÂ’s standing in front of me; a woman so strong
Ready to take on the world
The years have flown, now sheÂ’s all grown
But sheÂ’ll always be my little girl

Bridge
Trips to the circus, laughing at clowns
Climbing a tree, saying, “Daddy, please help me down”
Pictures with Mickey Mouse at Disney World
Remembering how it felt to say, “That’s my little girl”


Verse 2
It was tea parties, a small table for two
"A cup for me, Daddy, here's one for you"
That was long ago, another time and place
Now wedding cake and champagne have taken its place
IÂ’m standing here about to give her away
Recalling how so many times, I imagined this day
Looking down at a little girl, who walked by my side
Now I look up at the most beautiful bride

Chorus
SheÂ’s standing in front of me; a woman so strong
Ready to take on the world
The years have flown, now sheÂ’s all grown
But sheÂ’ll always be my little girl
Tag
The years have flown, now youÂ’re all grown
But youÂ’ll always be my little girl
