THIS DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL ~ Words and Music by Ran Birkins

A doctor in maternity handed you to me,
"Congratulations, Dad, here's your newborn baby!"
At that moment we were bonded for eternity;
a father and a daughter, a little girl and her daddy!

You'll always be this Daddy's little girl,
frilly dresses, pony tails,
Mommy's polish on your nails;
merry-go-'rounds, hopscotch and hula hoops,
Saturday morning cartoons,
trick or treating in costume.
After every bedtime story,
you made me promise I would be
your forever daddy,
and you'd always be this Daddy’s little girl.

Remember how we used to dance, you standing on my feet?
we'd clomp around the room, laughing hysterically.
Picking dandelions, catching lightning bugs for pets,
Playground swings and finger-paintings, Barbie dolls and Etch-A-Sketch!

(repeat chorus)

Even when you're fully grown,
with children of your own,
there’s no breaking promises
sealed with hugs and kisses;
you’ll always be my princess!

(repeat chorus)
