Lyrics:

I wish that I remembered better.
You've grown so fast before my very eyes.
The woman that you're now becoming suddenly takes me by surprise. I thought that there'd be time and tide a-plenty to grow into a proper fatherhood but underneath our feet the sands were shifting.
You spread your wings, soon you'll be gone from me for good.
And when I tucked you in at night and swore I'd always love you madly I'd wonder would this be the last time that you'd ever call me 'Daddy'?
A bittersweetnes runs through every memory: a daughter's father wants to be so strong, then suddenly he's just an ancient relic.
You spread your wings, you weren't a little girl for very long.
And if trouble's on its way you know I'd lay my life down for you gladly. I only wish that I could still remember the last time that you called me 'Daddy'.
Once you called me 'Daddy'.
Oh, my precious girl.
