As I Watch Her Go.
There she gos I thought to myself as she walked away
seams like yesterday I was helping her to take her first step,
today daddy's girl is all grown up doing it all her way
I can honestly say it wasn't as I slept,
I've always been there to make her smile when she was sad
always there to pick her up to talk to or lend a hand,
12 years of her in my life...for 12 years Superman was dad
to her if the world came crashing down there I would stand,
I kept her safe, kept her warm took away all her fear
now as the day gos by I see her need for me subside
today it's all about cute boys and music in her ear
and for daddy's filling I now have to hide,
seeing time move back wards would give me that sensation again
when I was her hero and she loved to be in my arms
now a quick kiss goodbye and a pat on the back like a friend
how dose a dad weather this storm?
as she walks away.... she'll never be a little girl again I know
then a quick turn to look back and see,
dad is still here as she's ready and I watch her go
then a smile from her and I know it's for me.
