She was only about 5 years old
Sitting out by the fishing pond barely even grown
He sat around next to her yet she seemed so far away
Wondering in those thoughts fire in that afternoon in May
He said baby girl whatcha' thinking bout
Her blue eyes looked into his
Without a second to think it out she said a little something like this
Daddy I'll love you with a perfect two
With the colors in the rainbow in the sky of blue
Taught me so much in some little town
I'm so darn happy that you were mine
Got the berries in the garden in the summer wind
Sweet and funny like you've always been more precious to me
Rare golden pearl
And I'll forever and always be daddy's little girl
(Piano Interlude)
She Turned 16 in a world of her own
He couldn't believe how fast she had grown
The good old days turned to slammin' doors and screamin'
Ooooh about the little things
That had no meanin'
One day a fight got really bad
She ran out cryin'
She knew she couldn't stay mad at him
When she came back a words a flyin'
Daddy I'll love you with a perfect two
With the colors in the rainbow in the sky of blue
Taught me so much in some little town
I'm so darn happy that you were mine
Got the berries in the garden in the summer wind
Sweet and funny like you've always been more precious to me
Rare golden pearl
And I'll forever and always be daddy's little girl
As time flew by and days turned to years
He watched a little girl grow into a woman
That had no fears
But he grew old to and one day he lay in a hospital bed
And there she was sittin' next to him holding his hand as he said
Baby I'll love you with a perfect two
With the colors in the rainbow in the sky of blue
Taught me so much in some little town
I'm so darn happy that you were mine
Got the berries in the garden in the summer wind
Sweet and funny like you've always been more precious to me
Rare golden pearl
And for the matter anything in the world
You'll forever and always be daddy's little girl
