Lyrics of In pictures

I've got her photograph on a stand by my bed
Two on the mantle and thousands in my head
I can't believe how fast she's growing
It ain't supposed to be like this
Everytime i look at her, i see how much i missed.

I missed her first steps
Her first words
And i love you daddy is something i seldom heard.
Oh it hurts me so
To watch my girl grow
Up in pictures

I sent the money down
Do my best to do my part
But it can't compare to what i paid with my heart
There's still one answered question
That weighs heavy on my mind
Will she ever understand, the reasons why?

I missed her first steps
Her first words
And i love you daddy something i seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so, to watch my girl grow
Up in pictures

Takes all i have to keep the tears inside.
And what i wouldn't give if i could turn back time.

I missed her first steps
Her first words
And i love you daddy is something i seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so, to watch my baby grow
Up in pictures
