There Goes Me baby
 


(Performed by Kevin Richardson)

Daddy cries
When he says goodbye to his only baby girl
She's off to school
But she may as well
Be goin' halfway cross the world
I look into her eyes and remember all the times
We played games and I told her fairytales
"Daddy where's my kiss goodnight?"
She said every night when I tucked her in
But as she drove off in that car
I knew it was the end

CHORUS:
'Cause there goes my baby, off on her own
I'm gonna miss her when she's gone
There goes my angel, the one that God sent
And I know one day we'll be together again
There goes my baby

A young man
Came and asked me for the hand of my little girl
And he's a good one
But I know that he'll never be good enough for her
I know she'll give him all her heart
And make a good wife
But as she stands there in that dress
I can't help but cry

CHORUS

It’s funny how the world can turn you upside down
Just when life begins time runs out

The doctor came
Said the X-rays show I don't have very long
My little girl
Standing by the bed telling me that I gotta hold on
I told her to take good care of her mother when I'm gone
And hold on to your faith cause the Lord will keep you strong
Baby, don't cry for me
'Cause there's an angel right here with me
And she's waiting to carry me home

CHORUS:
So goodbye my baby, you're off on your own
I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
I am your angel, the one that God sent
And I know one day we'll be together again
So goodbye my baby
Goodbye my baby
Goodbye

Daddy cries
When he says goodbye to his only baby girl
