Description
a love song for my daughter. she turned 9 this year but it's happened so fast. The other day I was carrying her around and when I looked down at her face, she had the same expression she'd have when I'd hold her as a baby. I had a bit of a flashback and it prompted me to write this song.
I wanted this song to be both gentle to represent my unconditional love for her and a little bit aggressive to represent an 'I would die for you' kind of attitude. This one's pretty personal and I was surprised to find myself get a little emotional during the last verse delivery. Funny how it can sneak up on you like that.

Lyrics
When I look into your eyes
I'm reminded
Of the day you opened them for me
You were so dependent and so fragile
When i held you in my arms
I had never felt a love like that
and i never thought I could
I will be here
To be a part of your life
and I will love you
Until the end of time
I'll stand beside you
and i will be your hero
I'll never leave you
You are my whole life
Now your getting older
and so am I
You have made me so proud
To be alive and by your side
You are so beautiful like your mother
and your heart is an example of how I want mine to be
I will be here
To be a part of your life
and I will love you
Until the end of time
I'll stand beside you
and i will be your hero
I'll never leave you
You are my whole life
I'm reminded
Of the day you opened them for me
You were so dependent and so fragile
When i held you in my arms
I had never felt a love like that
and i never thought I could
I will be here
To be a part of your life
and I will love you
Until the end of time
I'll stand beside you
and i will be your hero
I'll never leave you
You are my whole life
Now your getting older
and so am I
You have made me so proud
To be alive and by your side
You are so beautiful like your mother
and your heart is an example of how I want mine to be
I will be here
To be a part of your life
and I will love you
Until the end of time
I'll stand beside you
and i will be your hero
I'll never leave you
You are my whole life
Nice double acoustic/electro guitars unison. Nice tone overall in the lead guitar. Gives some roughness to the tender song.
I like the reference in the bridge of you wanting to be like her. Feel the same around here: I learned so much from my little ones.
