My little girl getting
married today and I'm the father of the bride.
In her beautiful
flowing wedding gown, I walk her down the aisle.
Letting her go for the
man she loves, who she met in a bar by chance,
I held my little girl
in my arms for the father daughter dance.
Audio
& Lyrics at www.reverbnation.com/waynejacobs
CHORUS
Her wedding train
glided across the dance floor, as we walk on hand in hand.
Friends and family
gather round, her feet never touch the ground.
Happy tears run down
her face, with every step and every glance.
I held my little girl
in my arms for the father daughter dance.
