I'll always be your little girl
What becomes of a father's love
And you always said I would regret it
Just older
I'll always be, always be your little girl
Always be, always be your little girl
How the story goes?
I won't let that go
Those scarlet ribbons for my hair
Maybe you should know
What becomes of a father's love
Is that the way it's supposed to be
Don't you know they'll never be here but
When another has his daughter's love?
Always be your little girl
You have got to let me go
You found for me scarlet ribbons
In every part of me, should know better
You've got to let it go, oh
If I grew up too fast
When another has his daughter's love
When another has his daughter's love?
But my heart is strong and true
You've got to let it go, oh, oh
Don't you know they'll never be above?
I'll always be your little girl
You found for me scarlet ribbons
It's all borrowed time
What becomes of a father's love
Ribbons and bows
You've got to let it go
Won't be growing up
The things that you said, I won't forget them
Don't you know they'll never be above?
There's a part of you
Has to let you go
When the one man who gave it all to you
Those scarlet ribbons for my hair
You've got to let it go
Long as I can cry on your shoulder
And always play fair for you
He found for me scarlet ribbons
Those scarlet ribbons for my hair
You've got to let it go, oh, oh
I'll do as you ask
Always be, always be your little girl
I'll always be your little girl?
I'm doing fine
Like a thorn on a rose
