(Verse 1)
White lace draped across the altar
A father lets go of his daughter
As the sun sets behind a river view
Our special day is finally coming true
What we planned when I was a little girl
A man I’d meet and become his whole world
The only thing missing is you

(Chorus)
Tears running down my cheek are happy
But there’s a sadness deep inside
We bow our heads to pray
Then I open up my eyes to see you fluttering above me
I knew you’d make it somehow
Mama, you look beautiful
In your butterfly angel wings
(Verse 2)
Daddy looks happy with his new girlfriend
But seeing her instead kinda hurts inside
She’s not you but I’m glad she’s here
She placed a rose upon your chair
There’s feelings I can’t express
I smile so I don’t turn into a mess
(Chorus)
Tears running down my cheek are happy
But there’s a sadness deep inside
We bow our heads to pray
Then I open up my eyes to see you fluttering above me
I knew you’d make it somehow
Mama, you look beautiful
In your butterfly angel wings
(Bridge)
I know you’re proud of me
On the lace I watch you spread your wings
(Outro)
Mama, I knew you’d make it
In your butterfly angel wings
