Caitlyn

I was the very first to hold you the day that you were born

A beautiful little spark to light up the morn

At one I taught you signs just to help you speak your mind

By two you argued back, leaving silence far behind

I saw that personality bursting to get out

So smart and so creative, without a single doubt

Caitlyn, you’re the daughter that I never had

Looking at the soul you are makes me so glad

Funny and protective, a fire burning bright

I am super proud of you, stepping in the light

And even when my time is done, we will never part

I will always be right there, a spirit in your heart

Sitting in my bedroom, talking hours on end

You're my granddaughter, but you're my greatest friend

Watching scary movies, jumping at the screen

The most amazing moments that I have ever seen

We know each other's rhythm, we don't even need to try

I start a sentence, and you finish the reply

Caitlyn, you’re the daughter that I never had

Looking at the soul you are makes me so glad

Funny and protective, a fire burning bright

I am super proud of you, stepping in the light

And even when my time is done, we will never part

I will always be right there, a spirit in your heart

Life is just a journey, the years go rolling by

But the bond we built together is never gonna die

If the road gets heavy and you need a hand to hold

Just remember all the love and the stories that we told

I'll be watching over you in everything you do

My beautiful girl, I am always here for you

Cause Caitlyn, you’re the daughter that I never had

Looking at the soul you are makes me so glad

Funny and protective, a fire burning bright

I am super proud of you, stepping in the light

And even when my time is done, we will never part

I will always be right there, a spirit in your heart

Yeah, I will always be right there, a spirit in your heart
