Quotable Lyrics

The day that God gave me an angel
Just know that he gave you the same
Watching you grow, makes me so thankful
I light up when I hear your name
There will come a time I won't always be around
But everything I taught you will be holding you down
I want you to never ever doubt in your mind
Hope you know you'll always be the apple of my eye
