I've got her photograph on a stand by my bed
Two on the mantle and thousands in my head
I can't believe how fast she's growing, it ain't supposed to be like this
Every time I look at her I see how much I've missed
I missed her first steps, her first words
And I love you Daddy
Is something I've seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so, to watch my girl grow up in pictures
I send the money down, do my best to do my part
But it can't compare to what I've paid with my heart
There's still one unanswered question that weighs heavy on my mind
Will she ever understand the reasons why
I missed her first steps, her first words
And I love you Daddy
Is something I've seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so, to watch my girl grow up in pictures
It takes all I have to keep the tears inside
And what I wouldn't give if I could turn back time
I missed her first steps, her first words
And I love you Daddy
Is something I've seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so, to watch my baby grow up in pictures
