There's two things I know for sure She was sent here from heaven And she's daddy's little girl As I drop to my knees by her bed at night She talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes And I thank God for all the joy in my life Oh, but most of all, for... Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair "Walk beside the pony, daddy, it's my first ride." "I know the cake looks funny, daddy, but I sure tried." Oh, with all that I've done wrong I must have done something right To deserve a hug every morning And butterfly kisses at night. Sweet sixteen today She's looking like her momma a little more every day One part woman, the other part girl To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls Trying her wings out in a great big world But I remember... Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair "You know how much I love you, daddy, but if you don't mind, I'm only going to kiss you on the cheek this time." Oh, with all that I've done wrong I must have done something right To deserve her love every morning And butterfly kisses at night. All the precious time Like the wind, the years go by Precious butterfly Spread your wings and fly She'll change her name today She'll make a promise and I'll give her away Standing in the bride room just staring at her She asked me what I'm thinking And I said, "I'm not sure, I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl." Then she leaned over, and gave me... Butterfly kisses, with her mama there Sticking little flowers all up in her hair "Walk me down the aisle, daddy, it's just about time." "Does my wedding gown look pretty, daddy?" "Daddy, don't cry." Oh, with all that I've done wrong I must have done something right To deserve her love every morning, and butterfly kisses I couldn't ask God for more Man, this is what love is I know I've gotta let her go But I'll always remember Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses...
这首歌是美国抒情乡村歌手鲍勃.卡莱欧(Bob Carlisle)在他的女儿十六岁生日前夕,特别为女儿谱写的。卡莱欧在女儿生日前夕,突然惊觉女儿已经成长,不要再过多久,就即将就要远走高飞,离家去开创自己的人生。许多甜蜜的回忆,还有自己过去曾经错过、以及将来不会再拥有的机会,都浮现在他脑海,因此他萌生了这首歌的灵感。原本他并没有想要发表,只想把歌曲保留作送给女儿的礼物,但是在好友们的鼓励之下,才决定推出录音。本歌将一个父亲对女儿的爱写得感人致极。《旧金山纪事》报曾报导,有边开车边听此歌的听众把车子停到路边,泣不成声…… |
