My Darling Daughter
My darling daughter
My darling daughter ,
When I look into your eyes what do I see?
I see black beauty, that looks like me.
I see a warm heart, and gentle soul.
I see someone the world,
is grateful to behold.
My darling daughter,
I want only the best for you,
And for you, there is nothing,
that I wouldn't do.
You are my star, in the midnight sky,
No one else compares,
so they need not try.
You are the icing, on the cake,
And my love for you,
keeps me awake!
I don't want, to ever stand in your way.
So I get on my knees, and I begin to pray.
I ask God to protect you always,
And May you never forget,
to give him the praise.
My darling daughter,
you are truly a blessing,
And my love for you,
I can't help confessing.
I want the world to know exactly how I feel,
That you are no small part of me,
But, a really big deal!
My darling daughter,
I will always stand by your side.
I'll be your mentor, I'll be your guide.
I'll be your help when you need a hand.
I'll be your feet when you're unable to stand
I'll be you voice when you can't speak,
I'll be your strength when you are weak.
Whenever you look back,
You will find,
That your mother,
is only two steps behind.
My darling daughter,
On me, you can always depend,
I'm not just your mother,
I'm your best friend!
