DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL
(Karla Bonoff)


Karla Bonoff






He was the calm in the storm
Daddy kept us warm
What will I do when he's gone
How will I carry on


Yes, I'll know when it's his time to go
That I'll have to grow up too
Oh, can't I stay right here
And be daddy's little girl


So, how did the years go so fast
Or did we just lose track
So, now we can't waste any time
I'll make each moment mine


Yes, I'll know when it's his time to go
And I'll have to grow up too
Oh, can't I stay right here 
And be Daddy's little girl


The time keeps moving, life keeps passing
There's still so much to say
But I will go on, I will be strong
I will find my way


When I look in the face of the child
I see you in her eyes
And we're all so much the same
We'll carry on your name


Yes, I'll know when you have to go
And I'll have to grow up too
Oh, can't I stay right here and be Daddy's little girl
Oh, can't I stay right here and be Daddy's little girl
