This is the way, I'd hope, everyone sees their grown babies, and if you dont have kids, then how you see your much loved pups, puddies, ponies, piggies, or penguins! 😉

lyrics

(In Her) Daddy's Eyes

Seems like it was yesterday
The doctor said, another baby's on the way.
Times were hard, made you wonder why, why, why,
But you knew you could make it when you first heard her cry.

Well mama's little baby's got big green eyes
Looks pretty as an angel when Mama goes and ties
Little pink ribbons all thru her hair
Then watches baby dancing without a care

See Papa couldnt keep the sands of time from blowin
Or keep his little girl from growin
He still sees her as a baby in his eyes
She's just a baby in her daddy's eyes

Wasnt too long till four more come.
As the days grows longer, you know the heart grows numb
And the pretty little girl with the smile so sweet
Soon found herself a bother at her mothers feet

Words said in anger to a teenaged girl
Sent her runnin down the highway into this crazy world
Lord knows the time they woulda took back then
If they'd ever known they'd never see her again.

See Papa couldnt keep the sands of time from blowin
Or keep his little girl from growin
He still sees her as a baby in his eyes
She's just a baby in her daddy's eyes
