Daughter you are two today, and so far away
I am here all grown up wondering how you are
Two years ago we were together everyday
Then I had to say goodbye words so hard to say
You were my light my joy my love my life
My reason to never stray

Daughter you are two today, so close to those you love
A young couple who are parents now to love and cherish you
Two years ago they were childless and sad
Then you were placed in their arms and they are forever glad
You are their joy their love their life
Their reason to hold on

Daughter you are two today, and I miss you so very much
And now I must start a life of my own
Without you, without your parents to guide me through
But in my heart, in my mind, in a special place
Always in my memories in a safe place
Where you will be and no one person can touch

So once again Happy Birthday little love
