lyrics

Lady-Child
By Dawn Boudreau
January 2011

I have a girl
She’s all grown up now
When did this happen
Please tell me how
Just yesterday
She wore pigtails and bows
Now she’s a lady
I’m watching her go

Chorus:
Now she’s gone thru the door
No time for my tears to cloud her smile
Dreams in her eyes of cornflower blue
She’s my lady-child
And there she goes

I hear her tales
Of places and friends
A life she’s creating
So it begins
She’s on her own journey
My work is complete
I stand here watching
Tears bittersweet

Now she’s gone thru the door
No time for my tears to cloud her smile
Dreams in her eyes of cornflower blue
She’s my lady-child
And there she goes

Bridge:
Positive choices
She mostly makes
I’ve got me convinced
From my life she takes
Deep down I know
The woman she’ll be
Is in spite and because of me


Now she’s gone thru the door
No time for my tears to cloud her smile
Dreams in her eyes of cornflower blue
She’s my lady-child
And there she goes

I used to think I was a jazz musician - but I must confess: I’m a folk musician who writes with a jazzy twist, sometimes with hints of musical theatre. Having achieved a comfortable state of middle-aged happiness, I love to share stories from the journey I traveled to get here. ... more
