That was me up there
pulling on those locks of hair
saying "giddy up"
and grinning as he lifted me
for all the world to see
I was his little girl
the one with all those curls
he took me to work
and let me play while he worked
he took me out to lunch
said I was his VIP brunch
and his boss would laugh
he'd carry me to the car
then hold open my door
help me with the belt
then he'd grin and say
"where to ma'am"
at the dinner he'd smile
and he'd order for me
and say we were on a date
he always say "ladies first"
and "after you miss"
at bid time he'd tuck me in
and hand me my teddy bear
then he'd kiss my head and smile
"goodnight my little one"
now he's gone
and I need him here
to hold me close and dry my tears
I can't be strong just yet
till i see his smile
the one I can't forget
I can't be strong till I'm with him again
