Do you like the dress I’m wearing?
It’s Mom’s dress from your wedding day
I cleared the room to have a moment
And to think about what you would say
You said, “The best, but hardest moments
Were realizing that I’d grown”
You don’t know how hard this is
To walk out of this door alone
Daddy, can you really hear me?
I feel you in this room somehow
You’d be so proud of your daughter
I wish you could be here now
Tell me why my heart is pulling
Back to memories way back when
Maybe ’cause when this door opens
I let go of the child I’ve been
I’ve waited my whole life
For what I’m about to do
I never dreamed that I would walk
Down that aisle without you
Daddy, can you really hear me?
I feel you in this room somehow
You’d be so proud of your daughter
I wish you could be here now
