~Daddy's Little Girl~

She's a princess...
Her daddy told her so.
As he held her tight,
Just watching her grow.

She's beautiful!
Her daddy said "It's true!"
As he held her tight.
Amazed how she grew.

She's a woman.
Her daddy wispered now.
As he hugged her a bit looser.
Sat back, and said "wow".

Because daddy's hands are big enough to hold your world.
Daddy's hands are gentle enough for this little girl.
She dances for him in the living room, with her sister in twirl.
Because daddy's hands are big enough to hold your world.

Twenty one years old.
Her life is on It's way.
Daddy's a little older.
A bit more gray.
Still holds her when he can.
Though times a bit more rare.
But he'll always be that man...
With which no one can compare.

Because daddy's hands are still big enough to hold your world.
Daddy's hands are strong enough for this older girl.
She dances in his mind, with her sister in twirl.
And daddy's hands are still big enough to hold your world.
Daddy's hands will always hold your world.

I wish my hands were just like his.
I wish my hands could hold a world so lightly.
And yet hold a heart so tightly.........................

~Just Give Me Five Minutes~

Five minutes...
Just let me walk out your door.
And tred on your lawn.
Five minutes...
Just let me drive some more.
Now the feelings gone.

I stormed out mad...
And I said "I'm outtie!"
I stormed out mad...
Leaving you a little pouty.

Just give me five minutes...
And I'll drive a little, Call you back,
And apologize.
Because I just need five minutes...
To remind myself...
You're more precious then you realize.

All I want is five mintues...
To drive back, hold you and love you!
But all I get is 5 minutes...
To explain what I told you, and hug you.

Is my five mintues too much to ask?
Don't let me make you mad.
Let me in your life!
I could be the best you've ever had.
