I close my eyes and see me back then
bright brown eyes shining up at you -- for you held the truth in your hands
and i thought you hung the moon
in the darkness of night, i can hear you whisper
telling me the places I'll go, the wings I'll build
and just as my eyes flutter shut, i see the love you hold for me shining through
through the rain, i see you in the distance
watching, waiting for the moment i tumble and fall
and your hand reaches out, leading me back to where i belong
and i cry. . .
for I've fallen to deep this time, Daddy
and i can't meet your eyes to tell you, I'm not your little girl anymore
i lost her as i fell. . .
i close my eyes and see you back then
ever so proud as i grew before your eyes. . .
and i thought you could hook the moon.
