In London

So few years ago her daddy held her in his arms
Snugged the blanket around her feet to help and
keep 'em warm
When he kissed her tender cheek, oh,
how her eyes would shine
His ev'ry dream was built
around his daughter Caroline


He remembered ev'ry time she'd turn another year
And, at the birthday parties, when he'd shed a
happy tear
Thinking of the wedding dress that she
would wear someday
When he'd have to give his
daughter Caroline away


He thought of what he saw the night they called
her from the roll
A silver graduation ring and
engagement ring of gold
It seems as tho' twas
yesterday he met her valentine
And now he's grown
and here to wed his daughter Caroline


Maarching on his arm she whispered, "Pa, I
still love you"
Those words remained within
his ears when she vowed, "I do"
Cheer was sparkling from his eyes, but tears were in behind
When he gave his heart away, his daughter Caroline
