Today's The Day

Today's the day that I walk her down the isle
She looks in the mirror and gives a nervous smile
I've got to be brave as brave as can be
Though it doesn't look it I'm nervous as she

I remember when she was just a girl
A bow in her hair a head full of curls
She used to sit on my lap and give me a hug
Or open her hand and show me a bug

Then all in one night she decided to grow up
From hugs and bugs to boys and makeup
I remember the night she brought a boy to me
I got out my gun and asked for ID

Since that day she's forgiven me
Growing to a woman from what I can see
Back to the present with her in the gown
My eyes water and a tear falls down

"Are you okay?" she says as she runs
Wrapping her arms 'round me in a hug
Today's the day that I walk her down the isle
I love you I say and she gives me a smile
