She Got My Name

(Verse 1)

She was only two, when she came into my world,

A shy little laugh, my baby girl.

Didn’t take long before my heart knew,

God didn’t give her my blood, but He made her mine too.

(Pre-Chorus)

And every night, I’d tuck her in so tight,

Rub those tiny feet, kiss her goodnight.

(Chorus)

She’s got my name, she’s got my heart,

Been my reason right from the start.

Eighteen years, where did they go?

From lullabies to letting go.

We don’t share blood, but it’s all the same,

’Cause love wrote her story — and gave her my name.

(Verse 2)

We laughed through the years, we fought a few,

But she always knew my love was true.

People stop us, smile and say,

“Y’all look alike in every way.”

(Pre-Chorus)

And I just grin, ‘cause they don’t see,

She’s the best reflection of me.

(Chorus)

She’s got my name, she’s got my heart,

Been my reason right from the start.

Eighteen years, where did they go?

From bedtime prayers to her own tomorrow.

We don’t share blood, but it’s all the same,

’Cause love wrote her story — and gave her my name.

(Bridge)

From two years old to almost grown,

She’s the home my heart calls home.

Every dream she’s chasing now,

I see that sparkle — I taught her how.

(Final Chorus)

She’s got my name, she’s got my heart,

The kind of love you can’t tear apart.

She may not have come from me,

But she’s the best part of my legacy.

Yeah, we don’t share blood, but it’s all the same,

’Cause love wrote her story — and gave her my name.

(Outro)

So when I see her smile, I know I’m blessed,

She’s my greatest “yes” God ever pressed.

She’s got my name…

And I’ll always be her dad.
