A Piece Of Me
@2010 Roger Sosnowski/Greg Brown/Mike and Denise Dunbar
Verse 1
It first hit me when I saw my baby girl
Holding hands with Jimmy on the Tilt a Whirl
They way they looked together said it wouldn't be long
Before a big part of my life soon would be gone
Chorus
Ohh Lord, I wasn't ready for this
Life goes faster with each new dawn
She said Jimmy gave her a good night kiss
I'm closer to the day a piece of me will be gone
Verse 2
From learning to walk to walking down the aisle
It wasn't easy but I made myself smile
Her whole passed right before my eyes
What happened to that little girl who once was so bashful and shy?
Chorus
Ohh Lord, I wasn't ready for this
Life gets faster with each new dawn
They said I do and he gave her a kiss
I'm getting closer to the day a piece of me will be gone
Bridge
As we danced at the reception she saw I couldn't hold back the tears
So she kissed me on the cheek and whispered in my ear
(Spoken by daughter)
Daddy, with your love and strength I can take on the world
You're a piece of me forever, and I'll always be, your baby girl
Chorus
Ohh Lord, I wasn't ready for this
Life goes faster with each new dawn
But I knew as my baby girl gave me that kiss
She's a piece of me that will never ever be gone
Outro
And I'm a piece of her that will never ever be gone
