First Hero

(hmmm-mm) Big strong hands that held mine when I was small

Lifted me up high where the world felt small

You taught me to walk,

then you watched me run

You were the first place I ever called home

You fixed the broken toys,

you dried the tears

Whispered I’m proud,

loud enough to hear

You stood like a mountain,

steady and true

Everything safe,

everything you

Years go by and I’m growing fast But your love it outlasts

every moment that’s passed No matter how far or how much I

change I’m still your little girl,

still the same

You’re my first hero,

my quiet guide

The one who’s always on my side Through the falls and the

steps ahead

Every word you’ve said

lives inside my head I might get taller,

I might find my way But I’ll need you every single day

Forever your girl, forever your pride My dad,

my heart, my whole life

Now I’m talking back and I’m making my plans

Trying to stand strong on my own two hands

You

listen so gently

You’re my first hero,

my quiet guide The one who’s always on my side

Through the falls and the steps ahead

Every word you’ve said lives inside my head

I might get taller,

I might find my way

But I’ll need you every single day Forever your girl,

forever your pride My dad,

my heart, my whole life

(My dad, my heart)
