V1.

Baby girl how did we get here?

Where did all of our time go?

I think I was your first love

And you know I love you so.

I feel you tremble with excitement

As you’re walking by my side

I’m an anxious mess myself

Because I’m giving away the bride

Chorus:

Lord knows I tried to set that bar so high

In your quest to find a man

But no one can love a little girl

The way her daddy can.

I’m giving you up, but not letting you go

And my heart is filled with pride

It’s  a surreal feeling in this moment

As the father of the bride.

V2.

I watched you take your first steps

And now you’re walking down the aisle.

I think daddy was your first word

And as you say your vows now I smile.

I’m in awe of the woman you’ve become

And you know your daddy cried

I’ve never seen you look more beautiful

Than in that white dress as the bride.

Chorus

Lord knows I tried to set the bar high

In your quest to find a man.

But no one can love a little girl

The way her daddy can.

I’m giving you up, but not letting you go

And my heart is filled with pride

It’s  a surreal feeling in this moment

As the father of the bride.

Bridge

 Chorus

Lord knows I tried to set the bar high

In your quest to find a man.

But no one can love a little girl

The way her daddy can.

I’m giving you up, but not letting you go

And my heart is filled with pride

It’s  a surreal feeling in this moment

As the father of the bride.
