Daddy's Angel - Lyrics

Words and Music: Anthony W. Carter

I'm giving you away
But I'm not letting go
The memories, they flood my mind
Of the little girl I know
Once upon a time
You held my hand so tight
You'd close your eyes and say a prayer
Then I'd kiss your head goodnight

As we dance I keep our love deep within my heart
And thank God for giving me this angel in my arms…

You're my little angel
So baby don't you cry
It's time to spread your wings and fly
If there's one thing this father knows
The hardest part is letting go
But you will still always be…
Daddy's little angel

It seems like yesterday
Has come and gone so fast
Now my baby's all grown up
But the memories will last

It's hard to say goodbye
When you've always been so near
But for now I'll hold you tight
Like those times that I hold dear

As we dance I keep our love deep within my heart
And thank God for giving me this angel in my arms…

You're my little angel
So baby don't you cry
It's time to spread your wings and fly
If there's one thing this father knows
The hardest part is letting go
But you will still always be…
Daddy's little angel

When you were young, I used to laugh
At the funny things you'd say
Right now I just can't help but smile…
On this blessed day

You're my little angel
So baby don't you cry
It's time to spread your wings and fly
If there's one thing this father knows
The hardest part is letting go
But you will still always be…
Daddy's little angel

I'm giving you away, but I'm not letting go...
