Where Have I Misplace My Little Girl

Where Have I Misplace My Little Girl
We’ve been through this before Watching you grow up I swore To keep you safe with my life embrace Watching you I trace the tears run down your face Wiping away the tears you shed to be replaced You’re my miracle of life conceived I try to reach to unlace, Erase the sadness, It's beyond my reach of understanding what you’re going through Sorry you are feeling blue, you mustn’t let your emotion’s cloud your judgment Come here, you silly girl and let me bring the sunshine back to your face Dance to chase your dreams and place yourself in my embrace The world won’t change, but what you focus on can and may come true If you change yourself you will change the world around you Where have I misplace my little girl You’re my stars You’re my moonlight You’re my rainbow I love you, my darling daughter As I talk to my little girl I remember the way my mother tried to talk to me and sometimes I took for granted 10/30/2015
