I met you on the net,
I had no delusions of what I would get...

My baby girl is 17yrs old today,
How all those years have flown away...

My Dad left my life 24yrs ago,
And how it changed me so...

How do you know when you are so small,
In fact you don't know very much at all...

Your life is so precious this we don't know,
Until something happens and we realize this is so...

My baby girl is becoming a Mum,
The night that she told me I felt quite numb...

Our lives are mapped out for us,
No matter however much we create or fuss...

Our lives are mapped out for us,
No matter how much we create or fuss...

The bright shining stars twinkle above,
Sparkle so much when you are in love...

The years we had together some were quite nice,
But all the others I paid a price...

How could I start my life again,
When I would feel so much pain...

My heart is all a flutter,
I just have never felt so better...
