When I was just a little girl,
You held me on your knee;
You thought that I was everything
A little girl should be...
I never had a thing YOU couldn't fix
(with nails or glue)
And every time I had a problem,
I went running straight to YOU!
I thought that you knew EVERYTHING
There ever was to KNOW,
And when I found out that you didn't,
I could never tell you so...
As I started growing up,
I guess we grew apart...
But I always saved a special place
For You
Inside my heart.
So, although I now have children
Of my own to love and hold;
You will ALWAYS be my "DADDY"
I will never be "too old".
