Who is this little girl, barely five years old?
Messy little pigtails, laughter free and bold?
Her eyes through her mask are sparkling, chocolate smeared on her cheek
Beaming with pure happiness, on her father's shoulders, strong and sleek.
Dad and I, we twirl together, shouting into the New Year's night
So new joy comes to stay, and all kind dreams take flight.
So high am I – I could almost touch the stars
And Daddy is my gentle giant, strong and true
He gifts to me a world where wonder has no bars
A realm of magic, dreams, and mysteries anew.
And with us spins the planet in its cosmic flight
And time itself stands still for us to hold.
Let all of life be warmed by such a radiant light
And shine forever, like this hour of gold.
And with us spins the planet in its cosmic flight
And time itself stands still for us to hold.
Let all of life be warmed by such a radiant light
And shine forever, like this hour of gold.
My father watches my foolish youth with a steady, watchful eye
His caring hand a gentle guard, as dangerous paths draw nigh.
My girlish years flew swiftly by; his hair has turned to gray.
He opened wide the door to wisdom for me to pass that way
With all his whispered blessings, which he never failed to say.
And when he holds his grandkids close, his face begins to glow.
He softly strokes their tiny hands, plants kisses where whispers go.
He murmurs tales and verses, laughs, and tickles, and he sings
And he finds his perfect happiness in all the joy their bright eyes bring.
So high am I – I could almost touch the stars
And Daddy is my gentle giant, strong and true
He gifts to me a world where wonder has no bars
A realm of magic, dreams, and mysteries anew.
And with us spins the planet in its cosmic flight
And time itself stands still for us to hold.
Let all of life be warmed by such a radiant light
And shine forever, like this hour of gold.
And with us spins the planet in its cosmic flight
And time itself stands still for us to hold.
Let all of life be warmed by such a radiant light
And shine forever, like this hour of gold.
