Chloe

I stood there watching the terminal doors

Wondering what fourteen years would do

Then I saw you walking through that airport gate

And all that empty time just flew

You were just a little girl when we were apart

Now you're twenty-one and standing right here

When I wrapped my arms around my daughter again

I couldn't hold back a tear

Oh, Chloe, you're a daddy's girl through and through

I would move mountains to see you smile

No matter the circumstances we face

I'll walk right beside you every mile

With a heart so giving and a spirit so kind

I see so much of myself in your ways

We've got a lot of catching up to do

And I'm behind you for the rest of my days

Now there are extra shoes by the front hall door

'Cause my girl is finally living with me

I watch how you treat everybody you meet

With so much kindness and sweet sympathy

Sometimes you laugh and I just have to smile

'Cause you're just like your daddy, it's true

Fourteen years couldn't break the deep bond

That I've always carried for you

Oh, Chloe, you're a daddy's girl through and through

I would move mountains to see you smile

No matter the circumstances we face

I'll walk right beside you every mile

With a heart so giving and a spirit so kind

I see so much of myself in your ways

We've got a lot of catching up to do

And I'm behind you for the rest of my days

When the road gets heavy and the shadows get long

I promise we're gonna make it through

Whenever you need a hand in the dark

Daddy is right here to hold on to you

Oh, Chloe, you're a daddy's girl through and through

I would move mountains to see you smile

No matter the circumstances we face

I'll walk right beside you every mile

With a heart so giving and a spirit so kind

I see so much of myself in your ways

Fourteen years was a long time to wait

But I'm behind you for the rest of my days
