My daughter when you were little
You called butterfly's flutterby's
Because they effortlessly flutter through the skies
As a child I was as carefree as a butterfly
I always wanted to fly through the sky
But my butterfly dreams were just dreams
And they fluttered by "bye"
Resisting gravity unlike I
My darling daughter the years
Have so quickly fluttered bye
But I always cherish any moment spent with you
You always give me wings
And a song that I can sing
Flutter bye
Goodbye
I love you like the sky
And through the moments
We'll both fly away

You always give me wings
