Song Description

A love song for my daughter

Lyrics

A ray of golden sunshine, a drop of morning dew
Could never match your smile, could never match your smile
Syrup from the maple tree is awfully sweet, it's true
But I'd prefer your smile, yeah I'd prefer your smile

Well they say God made the earth and sky
And I guess that must be true
But I think his greatest masterpiece was the smile that he gave you

A cool October morning when the leaves are all on fire
The colors fill my mind, and I leave my cares behind
Wood smoke in the evening blows gently down the hill
As daylight fades away, I hear the whipporwill

But after all the colors fade, and the trees have ceased to be
The light that shines behind your eyes will still be there for me

You lift me when I'm sagging, your joy renews my soul
As streams run to the sea, your love flows into me
You're the breeze that cools me in the heat, the flowers in my field
The stars that sparkle in the night, the special way I feel

I don't know what the world may bring, or what life has in store
But I'll love you 'till the day I die, and then forevermore, forevermore
