BILL GRIESE lyrics : "On Three"
She was standing alone on the springboard
Thinking "this is way too high"
The water was waiting below her
And the other kids were waiting in line
Her knees were shaking, her heart was racing
Her feet just wanted solid ground
Then her Daddy climbed up and stood with her
And said "I know a good way down"
Take my hand
Don't be scared
This here is your time
It's not far
Just to there
I swear you're gonna do fine
I'm gonna to start to count
So get set now and
Hold on to me
Here we go
On Three
She was standing in the back of the chapel
Wearing that pure white gown
Her new life was waiting before her
And she was sure of the one she'd found
But her knees were shaking, and her heart was racing
At the thought of walking down the aisle
When her Daddy turned and he looked at her
And he just said with a smile
Take my hand
Don't be scared
This here is your time
It's not far
Just to there
I swear you're gonna do fine
I'm gonna to start to count
So get set now and
Hold on to me
Here we go
On Three
She used to say
That he could never fall
Then one day
She got the call...
Standing alone by his bedside
Not a single light was on
Daddy was barely with her
All his fight was gone
Her knees were shaking, and her heart was racing
She'd thought they'd have a few more years
Then she leaned down and she kissed him
As she whispered through the tears
Take my hand
Don't be scared
This here is your time
It's not far
Just to there
I swear you're gonna do fine
I'm gonna to start to count
So get set now and
Hold on to me
Here we go
On Three
