In my eyes you'll always be a princess and the world to me, 
more wonderful than any twinkling star.
I will guard your innocence and all I ask in recompense 
is that you know the truth inside your father's heart.

I hope you remember, don't you dare forget: 
I will always love you, I will always love you.
It's just a simple truth, and what else could I do?
I will always love you...

You will grow up way too fast and leave me wishing for the past, 
back when you were still a daddy's girl.
So I'll hold onto the memories of the little girl upon my knee, 
that little girl that forever changed the world.

I hope you remember, don't you dare forget: 
I will always love you, I will always love you.
It's just a simple truth, and what else could I do?
I will always love you...

And when your heart breaks, my heart will break.
When your dreams come true, my dreams do, 
it doesn't matter what you're going through.

I will always love you, I will always love you.
It's just a simple truth, what else could I do?
I will always love you, oh, I will always love you.

Sometimes you will fly, sometimes you will fall, 
and till the day I die, daughter, through it all: 
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you...
