....Soon after the initial release of "A Song For My Son", we received many requests from moms asking for a mother and daughter song. .... In response, we wrote "A Song For My Daughter". We soon realized, though, that the sentiment expressed in this touching ballad could also be from a dad or even both parents, so we now offer "A Song For My Daughter" with both female and male vocal versions. ....."A Song For My Daughter", whether from Mom or Dad, is traditionally performed at the wedding reception any time following the bride and groom's first dance - though many people have told us that they have chosen to have it played at the wedding ceremony.
Just once upon a yesterday I held you in my arms You grew into a little girl with lovely childhood charms Now it seems I only turned around And I see you by his side Oh, I can't believe my eyes today My Daughter is a Bride
I guess somehow I always knew This day would soon be here Still I wonder as I look at you What became of all the years And no words could ever quite express The way I feel inside Oh, I can't believe my eyes today My Daughter is a Bride
All the laughter and the teardrops The sunshine and the rain I would relive every moment, Dear If I could bring them all back again
But now, My Love, the time has come To send you on your way So I wish you every happiness And the blessings of this day And I hope the love I've given you Will forever be your guide Oh, I can't believe my eyes today My daughter - Oh, I can't believe my eyes My Daughter - Oh, my angel and my pride My Daughter is a Bride
A Song For My Daughter
On Her Wedding Day
