Lyrics

the room lights up
with that quaint little smile
and she says, "daddy, guess what"
i just smile back
and i give her a shrug
then she crawls up in my lap

she looks at me
and sort of shakes her head
then she asks me why i'm so sad
i tell things don't always work out as planned
but daddy's going to protect you from all that he can

sophie smile
all night long
sophie smile
all night long

the years have gone by
and things aren't the same
that quaint little smile still lights that room up again
but one thing's for sure
she's as fine as can be
when she sings this song
happy are we

she's grown tall
and the pain's gone away
i watch her now in a much different way
sophie's smile says, "daddy, i'm okay"
but sophie can i still protect you like always
