Lirieke: Phil Vassar. Traveling Circus. She's On Her Way.

He said, a??Is this your first?a??
And I said a??Yes, sir.a??
I smiled and I said, a??We just had a girl.a??
He said, a??Oh boy. Just like me,
youa??re a fortunate one.a??
He said, a??Girla??s, theya??re different
and I ought to know.
Ia??ve got three myself
and theya??re all grown.
Youa??re in for the ride of your life.
Just enjoy it, son.

Therea??s gonna be first words.
Therea??s gonna be first dates.
Youa??ll think shea??s perfect,
but shea??ll make mistakes.
So be there to listen
and be there to talk.
Learn to let go
when ita??s her time to walk.

And shea??s on her way.
Shea??s on her own.
Just yesterday
You were bringing her home.
Youa??ll watch her fall down
Youa??ll watch her grow up
Shea??ll meet somebody
And shea??ll fall in love
Hear what I say
Theya??ll come a day
When shea??s on her way.

Holding her hand
Youa??ll feel like a king
Ita??s hard to say no
To your little queen
The sweetest words
Youa??ll ever hear
Are a??I love you, Dad.a??

Sometimea??s youa??re gonna wonder
If youa??re getting it right
But as long as you love her
Shea??ll be just fine.
Smiles turn to tears
And back to smiles
At the drop of a hat.


Her kneesa??ll get skinned.
Her hearta??ll get broke
The years will go fast
Some nights will go slow.
Boy, honor her mother
Whatever you do
a??Cause the worth of a man
shea??ll take that from you.

When shea??s on her way
And shea??s on her way.
Shea??s on her own.
Just yesterday
You were bringing her home.
Youa??ll watch her fall down
Youa??ll watch her grow up
Shea??ll meet somebody
And shea??ll fall in love
Hear what I say
Theya??ll come a day
When shea??s on her way.

Off to school
Down the drive
Ponytail waves goodbye
Shea??s the light and the love of your life
Then therea??s cars
Therea??s boys
All made-up
No more toys
One day shea??s somebodya??s wife

Shea??s on her way.
Shea??s on her road.
Just yesterday
You were bringing her home.
Youa??ll watch her fall down
Youa??ll watch her grow up
Shea??ll meet somebody
And shea??ll fall in love
Hear what I say
Theya??ll come a day
When shea??s on her way.a??
