She'll help you up
She'll help you stand
She'll tuck you in
She'll look into your eyes
And you'll look back
She'll hug you
She'll tickle you
She'll kiss you up
She'll even kiss you to sleep
She'll tell you stories while dad smiles down at you
She'll rush in and rock you back to
sleep when you awake in a fright
while dad hums to you
She'll cry when you go to school for the first time
She'll make you feel better if your hurt
She'll hold you close to her heart
She'll cry when you go off to college
She'll even cry while brushing your soft baby hair
Back and saying"My baby is getting married"
She'll cry when your father gives you away
She'll cry when you go off with your husband
She'll tell you your beautiful even after labor
She'll cry when her granddaughter comes into the world
And she'll tell her she loves her
She'll always keep you close to her heart forever more
And so her new granddaughter
But now she'll let you go and start with her granddaughter
Always saying she loves you
