Song Description

This song chronicles my daughter Lauren from the day she was born to the first day she walked: through her elementary school days & school plays: to her stellar performance on the athletic fields of high school and college, to the day I gave her away in marriage

Lyrics

I got so excited the day you were due
When your mom called and said hurry back home
.... Twenty hours later I was blessed to meet you
A sweet little girl of my own

When you took your first step with your small hand in mine
And the first time that I let you go
Your baby blue eyes got wide... then you fell down and cried
This sweet little girl of my own

Remember when you'd dress up in your mother's clothes
And you'd entertain us with a fashion show
Looking back is bittersweet in my heart you'll always be
This sweet little girl of my own

Watching you run and score the game winning goals
Or dance (sing) in your school talent shows
You made your mom and I so proud when you made the crowds go wild
This sweet little girl of my own

Now you're old enough to wear your mother's clothes
No more night time stories no more fashion shows
Looking back is bittersweet but in my heart you'll always be
This sweet little girl of my own

Bridge/interlude

......Well your special day is here
Got to pull myself together...wipe away my tears
The preacher's ready and we can't make him wait
But before I let go I just have to say

Baby you look like a princess in your wedding gown
All our friends are here to watch you take your vows
From my heart into his hand I give to this young man
The most precious gift I've known
This sweet little girl of my own ....this sweet little girl of my own (OR My sweet little girls now all grown)
