But you’re gonna miss this”
“But you’re a woman on your own
All in love and nearly gone
But you’ll always be my baby

Forever in my heart
So I say a prayer every day
That God will guide you as you find your way
You know that I’m near
Anytime my love is always here”

Bet your life
I am here and I will always be
Just a wish away

‘Til it’s time to go out on your own
Chase your dreams find your place in life
I know you’ll do just fine”
“She’s at the starting’ line of the rest of her life
As ready as she’s ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in her eyes
The prize is hers to win
She’s waiting’ on my blessings
Before she hits that open road
But baby get ready, get set, don’t go”

I am a hero
I am strong and wise
And I know no fear
But the truth is plain to see
She was sent to rescue me
I see who I want to be
In my daughter’s eyes”

You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,

Most mistakes I’ve made, I made them twice
Sometimes I don’t live out the words I say
And I just can’t stay out my own way
But my good intentions overflow
Way down deep inside my bones
Though my head’s been known to give me hell
This heart of mine is just something else, yeah
But the best part of me, part of me is you
Is you, is you
Yeah, the best part of me, part of me is you
Is you”
“It’s like God took my heart right out of my chest
And wrapped it all up in a little pink dress
And painted the most beautiful smile in the world
And topped it all of it with brown hair and curls
The day He made my baby girl
Cause the best parts of me were given to you
And I hope that all of your dreams come true
And as time goes by, I want you to know
That I’ll be with you wherever you go
You’ll always be my baby girl”

But she can make your tears dry, and
When you get your heart broke by the wrong guy
She can make it right
I hope you look just like your momma
And love her like I do
You’ll see close to perfect patience

But she’s been a waiter and a cook and a taxi driver#
For 20 years there at home
Until the day her girl was grown
Giving all her love to her was her life’s ambition
But now her baby’s movin’ on and she’ll soon be missing’ her
But not today
Those are tears of joy running’ down her face
She’s somebody’s hero
A hero to her daughter in her wedding dress
She gave her wings to leave the nest

She walks right by
Looks back into her mother’s eyes
And that smile lets her know
She’s somebody’s hero”
