Lyrics
I'm Not Saying Goodbye
I still remember the day I brought you home
A special love like I've never known
With your tiny hands wrapped around my thumb
I hoped someday that your prince would come
You had ponytails and scraped up knees
Got through your teens and stormy seas
I blinked and somehow here we are
You're all in white lookin' like a star
Now you're glowing in your lace and grace
And I'll try not to cry on your big day...
Chorus
I'm letting go but I'm not saying goodbye
You'll always be the sparkle in my eye
From your first steps to this walk today
I've been right here every step of the way
I'm letting go but I'm not saying goodbye, No...I'm not saying goodbye
I taught you how to fight and stand your ground
How to laugh through the tears when the world knocks you down
Now someone else will hold your hand
But he'll take care of you so I'll die a happy man
And when I hear you say "I do"
There's no doubt I'll shed more than a tear or two
Repeat Chorus
He's a good man and I can tell
By the way you smile he's loved you well
Honor love trust and respect
And what's to come is better yet
Last Chorus
I'm letting go but I'm not saying goodbye
You'll always be the girl who changed my life
I've loved you deeper than words could ever say
When my days are done and the stars take me away
I'm not saying goodbye...I'm letting go...but I'm not saying goodbye
