My first ever single, See You Again, was written to mark the milestone of my eldest daughter commencing high school, and is a love song from a father to his not-so-little girl.

My memory is awful,
but I know I’ll not forget
the first time that I saw your face;
the most beautiful thing that I’d seen yet.
I held you and I paced the room,
staring straight into your eyes
and I knew I must protect the thing
most precious in my life.

I couldn’t love my baby more;
at least I thought that at the time.
Yet it seems my love gets stronger
every single time I look at you.

When the time comes that you need me,
I will always be right here.
And when my baby needs her daddy
I’ll see her again.

So many years have come and gone.
You’re bigger and you’re strong,
and you swear more than a sailor
when you think I’ve got things wrong.
It’s hard to think that you were once
that baby in my arms.
Now it’s harder to protect you,
and I’m scared you’ll come to harm.

You’re not my baby any more;
she’s gone and been replaced.
But my love for her gets stronger
every single day I spend with you.

When the time comes that you need me,
I will always be right here.
And when my baby needs her daddy
I’ll see her again.

I can’t stop you growing up;
I can’t stop you moving forward;
I don’t know what the future will bring;
I don’t know what path you’ll choose.
I don’t want to let you go, but
I don’t want to control you either.
I confess, I’m terrified…

You’ll be my baby evermore,
even when you’ve flown the nest,
and my love will just get stronger
every single time I think of you.

And when the time comes that you need me,
I will always be right here.
And when my baby needs her daddy
I’ll see you again.

Yes when the time comes that you need me,
I will always be right here.
And when my baby needs her daddy
I’ll see you again.
