For a Little Girl

[Verse 1]
As I arise the morning air
Breathes a silent song to me
And sings it's melody of spring
It's then my thoughts return to you

[Verse 2]
Compare the starlight and the sun
They glow and twinkle in the sky
But though they glitter all time
They do not shine as bright as you

[Verse 3]
I hear the patter of the rain
Drops upon the falling leaves
Reminding me of days gone by
And of the sadness in your tears

[Verse 4]
My hand is heavy as I write this song
For all too soon it has to end
You must go where time will lead
And I can't follow where you go
