lyrics

To me who was so pint-sized
It was a gift to get so high
Who knew toy trains and gravity
A chance to finally meet the sky
I wasn’t afraid to fall
With his arms wrapped about my knees
I felt like an aeroplane
I felt just like the trees
That we would walk among together
With the feeling of stars in my gut
He was so strong and sturdy
With his bigger person’s strut
People would smile and wave
Wishing they were me
Carried by an awesome ox
For miles I could see
It didn’t matter just how long
It seemed like forever
Whatever I was feeling
Suddenly I felt much better
Like a princess on an elephant
Like a cowboy on a horse
But the thing that meant to me most of all
Was how wonderfully close
I was to the one who made me
To my love and joy’s first author
Up among the angels’ clouds
On the shoulders of my father
