[Verse 1] You came home in a blanket Fit right in the crook of my arm I learned how to hold a bottle You learned how to sleep on my heart Now you’re stomping in your pajamas Crayons on the kitchen floor Every day you’re a little less tiny Every day I love you more [Chorus] Watching my baby girl grow up Feels like sunrise on repeat Every “Daddy Look!” you throw up Knocks the ground out from my feet I’m scared of how fast the days run But I’m proud of who you’ll be Watching my baby girl grow up Is growing something inside me [Verse 2] You’re asking a thousand questions Why the moon keeps chasing the car You paint your name slightly crooked Say you’ll fly a rocket to Mars I pack tiny shoes in your backpack You turn Wave once from the door That hallway suddenly stretches Longer than it was before [Chorus] Watching my baby girl grow up Feels like sunrise on repeat Every “Daddy Watch!” you throw up Knocks the air right out of me I’m scared of how fast the days run But I’m proud of who you’ll be Watching my baby girl grow up Is growing something inside me [Bridge] One day you’ll grab your own keys Say you’re heading out of this town (oh) I’ll smile for the pictures you send Hide the way it weighs me down But tonight you’re asleep on my shoulder Drool on my old white tee I whisper “Take all the time you want I’ll be right here You and me” [Chorus] Watching my baby girl grow up Feels like sunrise on repeat Every “Daddy Stay” you throw up Is a promise I will keep I’m scared of how fast the days run But I’m grateful I get to see Watching my baby girl grow up While she’s watching over me
