if father time had a daughter

(Two, three, four)

Saturday, sleep late, bed head smile
Daddy daughter date down a cereal aisle
Shopping cart ride with my Goldie Locks
Little arms wrapped 'round Luck Charms box
Right there, that's my world
Father time must've never had a little girl
I know I'm gonna blink and I'm gonna be a mess
When that Cinderella shirt is a wedding dress

And they're gon' play that song, it's so bittersweet
And I remember her in her little bare feet
Dancing on the toes of my boots
I'ma try not to cry but shoot
Y'all gon' have to give me a break if you see a few tears
Least had you some really, really, really, good years
Bet daddy's girl's would stay little a little bit longer
If father time had a daughter

Y'all, I can't wait to meet who she becomes
Yeah, I know, she can't stay forever young
Hell, I pray for the guy that gets to lift that veil
But I'm even gonna miss letting her paint my nails

When they play that song, it's so bittersweet (so bittersweet)
And I remember her in her little bare feet (in her little bare feet)
Dancing on the toes of my boots
I'ma try not to cry but shoot
Y'all gon' have to give me a break if you see a few tears (if you see a few tears)
Least had you some really, really, really, good years (just some really good years)
Bet daddy's girl's would stay little a little bit longer
If father time had a daughter

Yeah, slow it on down, down, down
Have mercy on a girl dad
Yeah, I know before I know it I'ma turn around
And it's gonna hurt bad

When they play that song, it's so bittersweet
And I remember her in her little bare feet
Dancing on the toes of my boots
I'ma try not to cry but shoot
Y'all gon' have to give me a break if you see a few tears(if you see a few tears)
Least had you some really, really, really, good years (just some really good years)
Bet daddy's girl's would stay little a little bit longer
If father time had a daughter
