Dear Pops

Today is Australia's Father's Day. I wanted to post something special, even though in America it isn't our Father's Day. I love you Pops...


Thinking back to when I was a little girl
I used to be Daddy's
I wanted to be just like him
Hoping he'd let me mow the lawn
Working on cars out by the garage
His 68' firebird
Using our mattresses to build forts
The times we had headband wars

I am a women now not the same little girl anymore
I've moved away out on my own into the world
One day I'll be getting married and you'll walk me down the isle
Giving me away will be a bittersweet day
But Daddy I'll always be your baby

Even without saying it
I know you love me, I know you love me
Once I started growing it was hard to cope
I wanted to write you a song to let you know
No matter the rough times we've had
That's all in the past
I'll hold on to the beautiful times
And how to taught me to live for Christ

I am a women now not the same little girl anymore
I've moved away out on my own into the world
One day I'll be getting married and you'll walk me down the isle
Giving me away will be a bittersweet day
But Daddy I'll always be your baby
