As I lay her down to sleep,
One day i am gonna weep,
She is my little baby girl,
One day she will grow but will always my pearl,
As she grabs my hand with her little Fingers,
My heart melts and tears begin to stream,
This little girl has my heart even in my dreams,

As she grows the bond grows more,
I can't believe I'm the one she adores,
She says I'm her daddy and everyone else is a zero,
She has no idea that she is my little hero,
Every time she looks my way with that smile,
Even on a bad day I can't help but melt for a while,

Now my baby is almost sixteen years young,
I can't believe how fast the time has gone,
She doesn't know it but she is still my little hero,
Please let me reach double zero,
So we can create so much more together,

One day she will make a great mother,
Someday I'll have more little Fingers,
One day I'll have to give her away,
But for now I want her to stay,
I'm not ready to let her to go,
I can't believe I'm crying writing this poem...
