Kenny Rogers - Handprints On The Wall lyrics

rate me

Lyrics by Scott Innes and Claude Parish, Music by Nelson Blanchard.

The wait turned into hours

Before you came my way

The smile that filled a daddy's heart

On the special day

The moment left me speechless

I didn't know what to say

Then you took your first breath

That took mine away

Days go by so quickly

Summer turns to fall

Seems like only yesterday

That you began to crawl

So don't be afraid to take that step

I'll catch you when you fall

I don't mind if you leave behind

A few handprints on the wall

I can't describe this feeling

Way down deep inside

The itsy-bitsy spider

Was the first thing that we tried

Patty cake, the baker's man

With your hands so very small

You could always stay this young

And I wouldn't mind at all

Days go by so quickly

Summer turns to fall

Seems like only yesterday

That you began to crawl

So don't be afraid to take that step

I'll catch you when you fall

I don't mind if you leave behind

A few handprints on the wall
