My baby girl is now nine I have wiped her tears, cuddled her fears shared her wines I love her and she loves me But see she is only nine, we will disagree With age, emotions will turn like the weather I will wipe different tears, cuddle new fears And hopefully still share cheers I will always listen, that's a guarantee New things will come up boys, rules, beers I know life as a young adult is exciting But scary and hard at the same time I hope she loves me as much then as now I hope I stir her in the right direction So hopefully she will avoid a crime Communication, understanding, affection Hard! WOW! But whatever she chooses in her life I will always be there for her The good, bad, and indifferent 'cause I love her now, then, and always
