If you have small girls- a must hear
Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman.
Is there a link?
Verse 1:
She spins and she sways
To whatever song plays
Without a care in the world
And I'm sitting here wearing
The weight of the world on my shoulders
It's been a long day
And there's still work to do
She's pulling at me
Saying "Dad I need you!
There's a ball at the castle
And I've been invited
And I need to practice my dancing
Oh please, Daddy, please!"
Chorus:
So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone
Verse 2:
She says he's a nice guy and I'd be impressed
She wants to know if I approve of her dress
She says, "Dad the prom is just one week away
And I need to practice my dancin'
Oh please, Daddy, please!"
Chorus:
So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone
She will be gone
Verse 3:
But she came home today with a ring on her hand
Just glowin' and tellin' us all they had planned
She says, "Dad the wedding's still six months away but I need to practice my dancin'
Oh please, Daddy, please!"
Chorus:
So I will dance with Cinderella
While she is here in my arms
'Cause I know something the prince never knew
Oh I will dance with Cinderella
I don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone
Okay, I'm almost in tears now. Little girls grow up way too fast.

I'm crying so that it's hard to type! That is so beautiful and so terrifying. My little girl is only three and I don't know where those years have gone. Can't imagine 13 and don't want to think about 23 ...,
Thanks for a good cry .

I read the words, at work and needed a kleenex. I don't know how 18 years with Sarah, has gone by as fast as it did.
That was beautiful...thanks!
Gosh that is so beautiful... We have two "Cinderella's" my dd Sammie who is 15 and my new baby gd little Gabriela nearly 3 months old. I would love to get him a single of that song, I'm not sure if he would listen to the whole album but that song is beautiful!
Oh my, I'm crying too. What a beautiful song.
I just sent the link to my 22 year old daughter.
Totally bawling here!! Such precious, precious times {sniffle}.
