16

It's the day that every girl dreams about,
Where shes finally considered an adult,
Sixteen is the age,
Where every father wants to lock her in a room under key and bolt.

Where she gets to drive,
And her parents learn to let go,
Where she brings her dates home,
And where it seems like she was just born just a short time ago.

The time has flown by,
And you don't know where it went,
But you've seen me grow up,
And you cherish all the memories we've spent.

I may be your only girl,
And I'm growing up so quick,
It can't be undone,
It's life's magic trick.

She may be sixteen,
And she may be growing up,
But she'll always be your little girl,
Forever and always, no matter what!
