Scarlet Ribbons - Murphy, Roisin

from the cradle to the floor, my flesh and my bones, is that the way it's supposed to be, how the story goes, ribbons and bones, like a thorn on a rose, when the one man who gave it all to you, has to let you go, he found for me scarlet ribbons, scarlet ribbons for my hair, what becomes of a father's love, when another has his daughter's love, don't you know they'll never be here but, i'll always be your little girl, it's all borrowed time, and you always said i would regret it, if i grew up to fast, but my heart is strong and true, i'm doing fine, the things that you said, i won't forget them, i'll do as you ask, and always play fair for you, you found for me scarlet ribbons, those scarlet ribbons for my hair, what becomes of a father's love, when another has his daughter's love, don't you know they'll never be here but, i'll always be your little girl, there's a part of you, in every part of me, maybe you should know, i won't let that go, as long as i can cry on your shoulder, won't be growing up, just older, you have got to let me go, you found for me scarlet ribbons, those scarlet ribbons for my hair, what becomes of a father's love, when another has his daughter's love, don't you know they'll never be here but, i'll always be your little girl, i'll always be, always be your little girl, always be, always be your little girl, always be, always be your little girl, always be your little girl, you have got to let it go, oh oh, you have got to let it go, you have got to let it go, oh, you have got to let it go, you have got to let it go, oh oh, you have got to let it go
