From the cradle to the throne


My flesh and my bones

Is that the way it's supposed to be


How the story goes?




Ribbons and bows


Like a thorn on a rose


When the one man who gave it all to you

Has to let you go





He found for me scarlet ribbons

Those scarlet ribbons for my hair





What becomes of a father's love

When another has his daughter's love?


Don't you know they'll never be above?


I'll always be your little girl




It's all borrowed time


And you always said I would regret it

If I grew up too fast


But my heart is strong and true




I'm doing fine


The things that you said, I won't forget them


I'll do as you ask

And always play fair for you





You found for me scarlet ribbons

Those scarlet ribbons for my hair





What becomes of a father's love

When another has his daughter's love


Don't you know they'll never be above?


I'll always be your little girl




There's a part of you


In every part of me, should know better

Maybe you should know

I won't let that go




Long as I can cry on your shoulder


Won't be growing up

Just older

You have got to let me go




You found for me scarlet ribbons


Those scarlet ribbons for my hair



What becomes of a father's love


When another has his daughter's love?

Don't you know they'll never be here but

I'll always be your little girl?




I'll always be, always be your little girl

Always be, always be your little girl

Always be, always be your little girl


Always be your little girl



You've got to let it go, oh, oh

You've got to let it go




You've got to let it go, oh

You've got to let it go


You've got to let it go, oh, oh

You've got to let it go
