When you were five years old
We danced around the house
I can see you now climbing up my shoulders
I pushed you on the swings
Singin' funny songs
And everything was right 'til Wil was singing louder
Now you're all grown up, and I am growing older
But I still see the girl that I held upon my shoulders
You are daddy's daughter
My precious little girl
Like all is black and white 'til you bring color to my world
Every moment we're together
I'm thankful to the Lord above
'Cause I got to be your daddy
And I get to know this kind of love
When you were eight years old
I taught you how to ski
With you all dressed in pink - You were tough my little go-getter
Then in that summer from hell
When things were really hard
You made me a Father's Day card and everything was better
Now you're almost grown and soon you will be driving
And we'll be waiting up if you are late arriving
You are daddy's daughter
My precious little girl
And all is black and white 'til you bring color to my world
Every moment we're together
I'm thankful to the Lord above
Cause I got to be your daddy
And I get to know this kind of love
And you're like a precious dove learning how to fly
You're going to live alive, for sure
And I need to let you go out into the world
'Cause you're not a little girl anymore
And when the moment comes that I walk you down the aisle
I'll only shed a tear 'cause you always make me smile
You are daddy's daughter
My precious little girl
And all is black and white 'til you bring color to my world
If now my life was over
I've already received enough
'Cause I got to be your daddy
And I get to know this kind of love
Yes I got to be your daddy...
