My Little Girl
Tim McGraw · Greatest Hits Volume 2
Going to tell you how much I love you
though you think you already know
I remember I thought you looked like angel wrapped in pink
so soft and warm
you've had me wrapped around your finger since the day you were born
Your beautiful baby from the outside in
chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again
go on, take on this whole world
but to me you know you'll always be my little girl
when you were in trouble that crooked little smile
could melt my heart of stone
now look at you - I've turned around and you've almost grown
sometimes when you're alseep I whisper I love you
in the moonlight at your door
as I walk away I hear you say "Daddy, love you more"
Your beautiful baby from the outside in
chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again
go on, take on this whole world but to me
you know you'll always be my little girl
Someday some boy'll come and ask me for your hand
but I won't say yes to him unless I know he's the half
that makes you whole
he has a poet's soul and the heart of a man's man
I know he'll say that he's in love but between you
and me he won't be good enough
Your beautiful baby from the outside in
chase your dreams but always know the road
that'll lead you home again
go on, take on this whole world but to me
you know you'll always be my little girl
