Little Girl

I wrote this song for a friend's sister, who has just had a miscarriage.

Little girl,
I hope you're happy in the sky.
Little girl,
Spread your wings and dare to fly.
I'll continue,
To love you.
And you continue to be okay.
I'll keep my hopes up in the clouds,
And I'll bow my head to pray.

Is this really happening?
No.
I vowed to protect you.
Now the only time I get to see you,
Is falling into sleep.

And in my dreams,
You walk with the angels.
And you're whispering,
How you miss me so.
I still don't understand,
How this gift you give,
Can be taken away so easily.
But I love you.
Just remember me.

Oh, little girl.

Do you miss me like I miss you?
Little girl,
Your daddy can't breathe without you.
And I'll carry,
On your memory,
That I store so deep inside.
Promise me,
You'll fly free,
And I promise not to cry.

And in my dreams,
You walk with the angels.
And you're whispering,
How you miss me so.
I still don't understand,
How this gift you give,
Can be taken away so easily.
But I love you.
Just remember me.
Oh little girl.

Everytime I think about your smile,
No one gets to see.
I try so hard to bear your gift,
That you gave to me.
But I'll keep my head up high,
Over my head is whrere you fly.
Well, I promised not to cry,
But I can't hold this in,
I'm sorry.

And in my dreams,
You walk with the angels.
And you're whispering,
How you miss me so.
I still don't understand,
How this gift you give,
Can be taken away so easily.
But I love you.
Just remember me.
Oh little girl.

Oh little girl.
Oh little girl.
